Why do they not heal back like a bone or soft tissue? We just have one pair and that’s it…

well we actually have two sets – milk teeth that then fall out and are replaced with your adult teeth.

the reason they can’t heal themselves is that unlike bones and soft tissues, enamel does not have blood vessels running through it. without blood, it has no access to oxygen or other nutrients that enable regeneration.
