This allows for careful exploration of the salivary gland ducts and insertion of tiny instruments via the micro-endoscope to eliminate existing particles of debris or salivary stones.

One of the landmarks of a child's development during the first year is the eruption of the little white pearls.

Though called deciduous teeth as they fall off after a certain period of time, the last of the milk teeth remains in the mouth up to 12 to 14 years of age.
