At Artistic Touch Dentistry we know that teeth are amazing things. While their main role is to help chew and digest food, they also affect our speech and appearance. There are several amusing facts about your teeth that we thought you might be interested in.

Fun facts:

Children smile an average of 400 times a day.
Women smile about 62 times a day vs. men who only smile about eight times a day.
Teeth are as unique as fingerprints. Identical twins are not even born with the same teeth. Tongues are also unique.
Your dominant hand tends to determine the side of your mouth you chew your food on. Right-handed people tend to chew on the right side of their mouth while left-handed people tend to chew on the left side of their mouth.
