2.08 Understand the functions and disorders of the digestive system
Two types of Incisors: Central and Lateral. Central are located in the front part of the jaws and normally the midline of the face goes right between them. Central incisors (particularly the upper ones) are the most visible of all teeth. As with all teeth, variations of size, shape, and color exist among people The upper central incisors (two in number) have a "shovel" shape and on the back side (palatal side), they typically show a cusp called the incisal ridge or edge. The two maxillary central incisors play an important part in the pronunciation of consonants. The lower central incisors (two in number) are much smaller than the uppers. As for chewing, central incisors function is for shearing or cutting food during mastication. All incisors have a single root. 2.08 Understand the functions and disorders of the digestive system

2.08 Understand the functions and disorders of the digestive system
THE LATERAL INCISORS are small teeth located between the central incisors and the canines. There are 4 lateral incisors : 2 upper and 2 lower. Lateral incisors function is for shearing or cutting food during mastication. They have an important aesthetic role, although not as pronounced as the central incisors. The upper lateral incisors can also play a part in consonants pronunciation. Lateral incisors have a single root, usually very small and thin. 2.08 Understand the functions and disorders of the digestive system

2.08 Understand the functions and disorders of the digestive system
CUSPIDS: (also called canine) Canines are one of the strongest of all teeth and are 4 in number One feature of cuspids(canine teeth) is the fact that they are our longest teeth, with a pointed end, and surprisingly, only one implanted root. Canines rip food, but their position on either side of the mouth help guide the mouth and other teeth into the best biting position For our purposes we will refer to the two canine teeth as the CUSPID AND THE BICUSPID MOLARS: These are your sharpest teeth and are used for ripping and tearing food apart. ... Molars are also used for chewing and grinding food. Primary molars, also known as deciduous molars, appear between 12 and 28 months, and are replaced by the first and second premolars (four upper and four lower) described above Normally adults have 12 molars, in four groups of three at the back of the mouth. 2.08 Understand the functions and disorders of the digestive system

Functions of the digestive system
Salivary glands What is the function of the salivary glands? What chemical action takes place in the mouth as a result? salivary glands produce saliva, which keeps the mouth and other parts of the digestive system moist. It also helps break down carbohydrates (with salivary amylase, formerly known as ptyalin) and lubricates the passage of food down from the oro-pharynx to the esophagus to the stomach. 2.08 Understand the functions and disorders of the digestive system
