How does chewing ‘strengthen’ your teeth?

If the teeth and gums aren’t muscles, how does chewing firm food improve their health? And will eating only soft food/liquids cause your teeth to fall out?

Use it or loose it doesn’t go for muscles only. Bone decay is a big concern for astronauts for example. Teeth have roots, and without “exercise” these roots lose strength.
