This doesn&#39;t mean you can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.citydentists.co.nz\/dental-blog\/oral-health-wellbeing\/say-it-with-us-teeth-are-not-tools\/\">use your teeth as tools<\/a> though &#8211; enamel is much more brittle than steel, and can chip or break if you don&#39;t take proper care of your mouth.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. You will spend more than a month brushing your teeth in your whole lifetime<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The average person spends around 38 days <a href=\"https:\/\/www.citydentists.co.nz\/dental-blog\/ending-the-brush-debate-circles-or-straight-lines\/\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"49\">brushing their teeth<\/a>. Of course, this is based on the assumption that you spend the recommended <a href=\"https:\/\/www.citydentists.co.nz\/dental-blog\/dental-treatment\/are-you-brushing-your-teeth-right\/\">two minutes brushing your teeth<\/a> morning and night &#8211; no cutting corners!<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Your teeth are completely unique to you<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Teeth are as individual as fingerprints &#8211; no one else in the world has a set of teeth quite like yours. Even in sets of identical twins, each individual has their own unique &#39;dental print&#39;.<\/p>\n<p>You should take pride in your teeth and make sure you take special care of them. However, if you aren&#39;t quite happy with your unique set of teeth, we might be able to help with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.citydentists.co.nz\/dental-services\/cosmetic-dentistry.html\">cosmetic dentistry procedures<\/a> such as veneers, crowns and professional teeth whitening treatments.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"inlineImageWrapper\" style=\"padding-right: 3px; float: left; margin: 10px !important; width: 100% !important; height: auto !important;\">\n<figure style=\"margin: 0px!important; font-style: italic!important;\">\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Did you know you are born with teeth?\" class=\"inlineImage\" height=\"auto\" id=\"14032721\" src=\"https:\/\/www.citydentists.co.nz\/dental-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/x_0_0_0_14032721_800.webp\" width=\"100%\" \/><figurecaption>Did you know you are born with teeth?<\/figurecaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>4. You are born with a complete set of teeth<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Your milk teeth first start forming in the womb, even though they only make an appearance when you&#39;re six months to a year old. In fact, the cells that become teeth start growing only six weeks after conception! The tooth buds in the jaw continue to develop when a baby is born, until they finally emerge through the gum as baby teeth.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. In the Middle Ages poor people sold their teeth as dentures<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Centuries ago, poor people used to sell their teeth to the wealthy as dentures or tooth transplants. Luckily, dental technology has advanced since then, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.citydentists.co.nz\/dental-services\/dental-implants.html\">the dental implants<\/a> we use are now made out of titanium and porcelain.<\/p>\n<p>For all your dental health needs, <a href=\"https:\/\/onlinebookingapac.3pointdata.com\/v1\/view\/organization\/362\/index.html?pid=NZCDL01#\/perspectives\/3\">call in to see the tooth specialists<\/a>.
