Teeth
Section Editor:
Prof Mahesh Verma
Director-Principal,Maulana Azad Institute of Dental Sciences,New Delhi
Teeth affect our physical, mental, and social health. Good teeth are needed to chew food into pieces small enough for the digestive system to handle. They also help us look and feel good. Neglected teeth become diseased and cannot perform their function. They may cause bad breath and spoil a smile as well.
