THE CANINES: DO WE NEED THEM OR NOT?


Teeth according to Darwin represent the first line of defense in the struggle for existence. The presence of tooth provides a significant advantage in survival because it facilitates more comfortable access to food. Teeth are also the final frontier of the adaptation in masticatory function. Canines teeth are very important, based on the fact that they are the guidance of the occlusion, which means they are important in masticatory function. Given the importance of these teeth for nutrition it would be justifiable to wonder why there is often disturbance in the eruption?
