Fact.. Majority of mammals including human beings,have two sets of teeth during their life, i.e., One temporary set & One permanent set.

A set of temporary milk or deciduous teeth replaced by a set of permanent or adult teeth.Such type of dentition is called DIPHYODONT.

Each tooth is embedded in a socket of jaw bone.This type of teeth attachment is called THECODONT.

An adult human has 32 permanent teeth which are of four different types

1- incisors(l)

2- Canine(C)

3- Premolars (PM)

4- Molars (M)

Such type of dentition is called HETERODONT.

__DENTAL FORMULA OF HUMAN BEING IS

2123/2123 × 2 = 8/8 × 2 = 16/16 =32

Out of these 32 teeth , premolars and last molar teeth appear only in once,i.e., are monophyodont and the remaining teeth are diphyodont.
