The little round ridges on new front teeth are called mamelons. These ridges make it easier for the teeth to break through the gums and come into the mouth. They typically wear down within a couple of years with normal chewing and biting.

How do you grow new tooth in age 17?

You can not grow a new tooth. All your teeth are present at birth. Your first teeth come in while you are a baby but your second teeth are all ready there as small 'buds" ready to form and come in as you loose the first teeth. As you know, your last teeth do not come in until you are 17-20. Because they come in last and you are older, they are called wisdom teeth.

Biting surface ridges?

Biting surface ridges refer to the raised patterns on the chewing surface of teeth, which help in grinding and breaking down food during the chewing process. These ridges aid in the mechanical breakdown of food particles, facilitating digestion. The unique arrangement and size of these ridges vary among different types of teeth, such as incisors, canines, premolars, and molars, to serve their specific chewing functions.
