「六龄齿」

The first permanent molar, also known as the six-year molar, is the earliest permanent tooth to erupt, usually around age six.

  • Located as the sixth tooth from the midline, it grows behind the last baby tooth.
  • Importance of the First Permanent Molar: Longest-lasting tooth in life. Takes on the majority of chewing functions. Plays a key role in aligning the upper and lower dental arches and guiding other permanent teeth. Requires early protection through fissure sealant application to prevent damage.

Fissure Sealants

A highly effective method to prevent decay in the grooves of young permanent teeth.

  • Involves applying a sealing material on the biting surface and grooves of molars to protect against bacteria and food buildup.
  • Non-invasive, painless, and preserves natural tooth structure.
  • The material hardens to form a protective barrier over deep grooves, preventing decay.

The count matters

  • Hitters don’t want to strike out
  • Pitchers don’t want to walk hitters

Baseball Rules for Beginners

  • 3 strike = out
  • 4 ball = walk (batter advances to first base)
  • 1 hit = walk
  • foul ball, 0 or 1 strike counts as a strike, 2 strikes do not count as a strike.
