Food and Digestion

 Today I will be describing teeth. The purpose of teeth is for one obvious reason, eating food. There are three types of teeth in a human's mouth, canine teeth are for tearing and ripping meat off a bone, they are also the sharpest teeth. Then there are molars for crushing and grinding as well. The last tooth sort is an incisor. They are used for biting or cutting food. All teeth are located in the top and bottom of the mouth. 

I have found out that we have 20 molars in total in our mouth, 8 incisors, 4 canines. So in total that is 32 teeth in an adult's mouth unless you had an accident and don’t have 32.
