Bad breath can often be the first sign of a disease. But how do doctors define bad breath and what are the major causes of bad breath?...

Q: 16 Years Old Without 12-year Molars...

I just turned 16 a week ago, and I only have 25 teeth (one crooked 12-year molar on the bottom-left). I was wondering if my slow tooth development had to do with my general health, such as my nutrition or that I am going through puberty slow. Or is this normal?
