To prevent decay and periodontal disease. It's a lot cheaper and less painful than major dental work.

By creating a shield around the teeth that would last longer than toothpaste would.

How many toes do antelope have?
An antelope is a herbivore and therefore has teeth similar to those of other herbivores. Its teeth are made for grinding rather than tearing.
Do teeth repair themselves?
Actually, yes. But only to a certain extent. Tooth decay is caused by Sugars and Acids from the things we eat and drink. But if tooth decay has become a problem, than if you were to cut out Acids and Sugars as much as possible, the teeth would actually begin to repair themselves! It makes sense if you think about it. Bones that break heal themselves. Muscles that are torn heal themselves. So, if a tooth loses its enamel, wouldn't it be logical to assume it would come back if allowed to?
How did wisdom teeth get named?
They are generally thought to be called wisdom teeth because they appear so late-much later than the other teeth, at an age where people are presumably wiser than as a child, when the other teeth erupt.
Which soda decay teeth faster?
Soda (sweet soft drinks) do not decay teeth unless one fails to brush and floss. So the decaying of teeth is caused not by sugar per se, but by poor dental hygiene. On the other hand, if you do not consume sucrose (table sugar) at all, then it's unlikely that you'll develop cavities in your teeth, whether you brush and floss or not. The likelihood of developing cavities in the teeth (assuming you don't brush and floss), all other things being equal, would be proportional to the amount of sugar in the beverage. (I'm not going to delete the answer above but add onto it.) Soda by itself doesn't decay your teeth, but the sugar within does. When sugar enters your mouth, your bacteria turns it into acid. This acid decays the enamel on your tooth over time. Brushing your teeth will help, but will not get rid of it completely. This all can lead to a cavity, overall tooth decay, or the decay of a dental nerve. (which is painfull!) A lot of other things have sugar in them, not just soda, but many sugary soft drinks are main contributors. Citric acids in oranges and lemons can contribute, too.p this is not really true because all pops are bad for you so this should not be on hear is a LIE
Can you cure tooth decay?
Yes. Grind it out and place a filling in the tooth.
How many teeth does an old lady have?
The number of teeth an elderly woman has can vary widely depending on her dental health. Typically, adults have 32 teeth, but many seniors may have lost some due to decay, gum disease, or other dental issues. Therefore, it's not uncommon for an older lady to have fewer than 32 teeth, possibly even just a few remaining, or she might have dentures.
