Theodontius

Okay, so you know how you have teeth in your mouth that help you chew your food and smile? Well, theodontius is a big word that means having a lot of teeth or teeth that are really big and strong.

Imagine if you had 50 teeth instead of just 20 baby teeth and 32 adult teeth. That's a lot of teeth, right? People with theodontius might have extra teeth that grow in their mouth or their teeth might be bigger and stronger than most people's teeth.

But having lots of teeth doesn't mean you don't have to take care of them. Just like you brush your teeth twice a day and go to the dentist to make sure they're healthy, people with theodontius also have to take good care of their teeth so they can keep using them to chew their food and smile.
