It is common knowledge that our teeth are generally quite sensitive to pain. But wouldn’t it be better if they could just chew away under any conditions? In spite of our dental discomfort, it turns out there’s a good reason our teeth are so sensitive. To begin with, we should understand how our teeth can hurt. A normal tooth has three layers, and only the innermost layer, called the pulp, can feel pain. This is because it contains a large number of nerves that scientists call afferent sensory fibres, and they only respond to one sensation: pain. So, whereas people with tooth sensitivity may complain of tooth pain triggered by heat or cold, the nerves in the pulp don’t actually sense temperature, but instead only feel pain. So, what’s the point? Whenever a tooth is being damaged, pain acts as a signal that we can easily perceive, which urges us to avoid making things worse, said Julius Manz, spokesperson for the American Dental Association. “If you eat something too hot or chew something too cold, or if the tooth is worn down to the point where the underlying tissue underneath is exposed, all of those things cause pain, and then the pain tells the person that they should not use that tooth or do something to try to protect it a little bit more. So, it’s really a protective mechanism more than anything,” Manz explained. If teeth didn’t feel pain, we might continue to use them in situations that damage them so much that they break or have to be removed completely, Manz saiD. And for humans, this can be a big problem because, unlike sharks and alligators, we can’t replace them when they are broken.

The tissue underneath your teeth is most often exposed when you eat hot things. D. If our teeth did not hurt, most of us would do things that heavily damage it.  Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions  In the modern era, online shopping has made buying things more convenient than ever before. However, buying products on the Internet - whether on Shopee or Lazada - requires a whole new set of skills to make sure that you don’t waste your money on low-quality products that are falsely advertised on e-commerce platforms. To begin with, when you look at an ad or listing for a product, look for any evidence that the company supplying it actually exists. A specific company website is a good sign but remember that fake sites can easily be created with tools like WordPress. Therefore, when you’re on the website, scroll around and look for contact details and the “About Us” page. If all the information seems genuine and there are names of any employee or manager, this is also a positive sign. Also look for any presence on Facebook, Instagram and TikTok, since it’s not uncommon for brands to try to reach their customers via these networks. In fact, a lack of social media presence might be a sign that something is wrong, especially for fashion or beauty brands. You may also want to reconsider how you examine reviews and comments. You naturally want to see a lot of positive reviews, and that’s reasonable. However, an inordinate number of five-star reviews for a particular product can mean a company paid for them and used a review service to help push it to the top of the search results. Try looking up a company’s one- and two-star reviews and customer photos, which often provide more detailed insights about a product such as problems that people have when using it and, in many cases, even confirm that it is real. Be aware of reviews that all use similar language or sound like they’re for an entirely different product. Finally, check the date of the reviews to see if the listing got a large number of reviews unusually fast. And when you’re still not sure, you can always type the name of the brand into a search engine like Google and see if any sites pop up flagging it as a scam. You can also search on social media for posts where people review or discuss that brand, and if there are no results, this can be a sign it’s not a safe place to purchase from. In addition, try to find other buyers sharing their own experiences. For instance, online writer Michele Eilertsen keeps a long list of scam brands that she ran into on her personal blog.
