Our teeth are renowned as the strongest substance in the human body. Still, they are not immune to harm despite their robust nature. Maintaining optimal oral health through regular brushing, flossing, and visits to the dentist for exams and cleanings can help reduce the risk of damage, but even individuals dedicated to their oral care may encounter issues with their teeth.
