>A diphyodont is any animal with two sets of teeth, initially the deciduous set and consecutively the permanent set.[1][2][3] Most mammals are diphyodonts—as to chew their food they need a strong, durable and complete set of teeth.
>Diphyodonts contrast with polyphyodonts, whose teeth are constantly replaced.
Why the fuck do we only grow one adult set of teeth? What evolutionary profit is there in developing oral and dental diseases?
>inb4 its not energy efficient to grow teeth all the time
Yet our bodies have no problems growing random fucking kidney/gall/tonsil stones for no reason, or growing nails endlessly (I'm tired of clipping that shit)

When I read about orthodontics and saw they had not even figured out singlet oxygen yet, I realized dentistry was just all a big scam.

Food didn't used to be as tooth destroying and you could live long enough to reproduce with one set.

yep, if you eat low-sugary fruits and leaves, your teeth will be fine, tooth decay i minimal to non-existent. Bring in the carbs though and the bacteria will feast.

It's good enough. Better a few decent teeth befitting our status, than shitty reptile teeth by the bushel.

We evolved beyond primates to become atypical carnivores, in that we prefer a high fat to protein ratio.

If it isn't a stain or tartar buildup, then it's tooth decay.
Get it checked out ASAP. Sometimes teeth can look fine from the outside, while the inside completely rots away.

Dinosaurs were polyphyodonts. The critter just before the universal mammal ancestors was polyphyodontic. The universal mammal ancestor became Diphyodontic due to it's diet and small size: It ate insects and was rat sized. At that scale changing teeth is harder. That diet also requires interlocking teeth to stop bits of insect exoskeleton getting stuck in between teeth.

Evolution isn't about what is better, it's about what is good enough.

How do I make them fall the fuck out? Doctors refuse to pull out what they consider healthy teeth, probably they're all brainwashed to keep the clientelle. I was told, that in prisons they pull them out instead of curing them, but I'd rather find a better way to make the fuckers stop biting my tongue.

1) frugivores are not vegan, they eat insects and small critters as they come across them
2) chlorella is common algae present all over and it grows in ponds, lakes, rivers, and in any bit of still water. An animal that drinks from such sources of water will obtain B12 vitamin that way
Anonymous at Fri, 13 Sep 2024 06:44:59 UTC No. 16378125
>>16378121
forgot to add:
3) vitamin B12 is also synthesized by bacteria found in soil, water, and the digestive tracts of animals. This is why animals like herbivores can get B12 indirectly by consuming plants contaminated with soil or through symbiotic gut bacteria. Frugivores, who do not have as specialized a digestive system for B12-producing bacteria as ruminants do, rely more on consuming insects, mollusks, or bacteria in water sources to meet their B12 needs.

As we learned to kill prey with big pointy stick, sharp teeth became less useful.
Also, human digestive systems are notoriously short and better designed for digesting proteins, especially heated protein. Herbivores have long digestive systems better suited for breaking down plant fibres
Your pic is bullshit, you can't prove veganism by teeth, but by digestive system.

Early hominins were vegan fruit-eaters, which is why Oldowan sites have large herbivore bones that have been scraped (to get the meat) and cracked open (to get the marrow) with stone tools.

Real question would be, why you get teeth cavity always where dentist scratched his pointy thing before it happened.
