The Role of Genetics in Dental Health: Unravelling the Dental DNA
Author(s): Jing Zhang*
Dental health, a critical aspect of overall well-being, is influenced by a myriad of factors, ranging from oral hygiene practices to dietary habits. However, one oftenunderestimated
factor that significantly shapes an individual's dental health is genetics. Our genes, the intricate strands of DNA within our cells, play a pivotal
role in determining the strength of our teeth, susceptibility to cavities, and the likelihood of developing various oral health conditions. As scientific research delves
deeper into the world of genetics, the study of dental DNA, or odontogenetics, has emerged as a fascinating field, shedding light on the complex interplay between
genetics and dental health... Read More»
