Let’s go step by step to match each number on the tooth diagram with the correct label from the list.
We have 7 numbers pointing to different parts of the tooth, and 7 labels:
1. ENAMEL
2. NERVES & BLOOD VESSELS
3. PULP
4. ROOT
5. GUMS
6. CROWN
7. DENTIN
Now let’s look at where each number points and think about what part of the tooth it is.
—
Number 1 → Points to the outer white layer on the top part of the tooth (the visible part above the gum). That’s the hardest part —
ENAMEL.
Number 2 → Points to the very bottom inside the root, where the nerves and blood vessels enter. So that’s
NERVES & BLOOD VESSELS.
Number 3 → Points to the soft center inside the tooth, which contains nerves and blood vessels — that’s called the
PULP.
Number 4 → Points to the part of the tooth below the gum line, anchored in the jaw — that’s the
ROOT.
Number 5 → Points to the pink tissue surrounding the base of the tooth — that’s the
GUMS.
Number 6 → Points to the entire top visible part of the tooth — that’s the
CROWN.
Number 7 → Points to the layer just under the enamel — it’s softer than enamel but still hard — that’s
DENTIN.

Let’s double-check:
- Enamel = outermost layer on crown → #1 ✔️
- Nerves & Blood Vessels = at tip of root → #2 ✔️
- Pulp = inner chamber → #3 ✔️
- Root = lower part in bone → #4 ✔️
- Gums = around tooth base → #5 ✔️
- Crown = top part you see → #6 ✔️
- Dentin = under enamel → #7 ✔️
All match correctly!
Final Answer:
1. ENAMEL
2. NERVES & BLOOD VESSELS
3. PULP
4. ROOT
5. GUMS
6. CROWN
7. DENTIN
