Dr. Wendell King with a patient

Saliva has many uses, including assisting you with your digestion and protects your teeth from bacteria in your mouth.

It takes an average of 43 muscles to frown, but only 17 to smile.

After eating, it takes saliva up to an hour to neutralize the acidity created by decay-producing bacteria.

Wisdom teeth get their name from the age group during which they typically grow in: the "age of wisdom" (17-21 years old).

Sensitive toothpaste contains potassium nitrate, which helps block the tiny tubules in the dentin that cause the sensitivity.

The first braces were constructed by Pierre Fauchard in 1728. The braces consisted of a flat strip of metal, which was connected to teeth by pieces of thread.
