     Teeth are the hardest structures in the body. They help to begin digestion by mechanically breaking down food. People have two sets of teeth in their lifetime. Primary teeth are the first set and contain ten teeth. Secondary teeth come in later in life and contain 32 teeth, 16 teeth in each jaw.
