once these powerful teeth were needed for chewing up raw meat, roots, and other tough stuff, we now eat quite soft foods and have a lot of extra help with dental care. If there are problems with our teeth, we can visit a dentist. We use toothpaste, toothbrushes, and dental floss to keep molars strong. Our jaws are much smaller and narrower than they were.
As a result of all of these things, we now rely on the strength and number of our teeth a lot less than we did when we were prehistoric hunter gatherers.
