Dental Health Word Search
This dental health word search covers the mouth from enamel to gums: the molar and the incisor, plaque and cavity, floss and fluoride, and the orthodontist who fits braces.
A child has 20 baby teeth, and an adult has 32 once the four wisdom teeth come in, usually between ages 17 and 25. Each tooth is coated in enamel, the hardest substance in the human body, but enamel has no living cells, so a hole in it cannot grow back. Plaque bacteria feed on sugar and give off acid, and that acid is what slowly eats a cavity into the surface.
Grand Rapids, Michigan became the first city to add fluoride to its tap water, in January 1945, and tooth decay among the children who grew up drinking it fell by more than half. The bristle toothbrush is older: William Addis made one in an English jail around 1780 from a carved bone and boar hair, and nylon bristles replaced the hair in 1938. February is National Children's Dental Health Month in the United States.
