Dental plate refers to the protrusion of teeth on the upper and lower jaws in human and animal mouths, which is the bracket of teeth. Tooth plate can support and protect teeth, and its excellent hardness and elasticity can resist the impact of teeth chewing food. In addition, the dental plate is an important support point for oral muscles such as temporalis and masticatory muscles.

There is an alveolar ridge on the upper and lower jaws of adults, and the dental plate grows on these ridges, forming a complete dental system with gums, gums, periodontal membranes and other structures. The development of dental plate starts from embryonic stage and lasts until 18-25 years old. Dental plates of different ages show different shapes and structures.

In order to keep a healthy mouth and strong teeth, we need to pay attention to protecting the dental plate. First of all, we should maintain good oral hygiene, brush our teeth regularly, rinse our mouths and remove food residues from our mouths. Second, avoid biting hard objects or using a toothbrush that is too hard, so as not to damage the dental plate. Third, go to the dentist regularly, check oral health, deal with oral problems in time, and prevent oral diseases.
