If youâre like most people, you would probably guess that itâs cavities. Unfortunatelyâ¦youâd be wrong. It is generally accepted that the leading cause of tooth loss in people over 35 is periodontitis, more commonly known as gum disease. In people under 35, cavities are the leading cause of tooth loss. Teeth are normally held firmly in place under your gums by a strong bone called alveolar bone.
There have only been four presidents of the United States who were Democratic-Republicans (Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, James Monroe, and John Quincy Adams), and only four who were Whigs (William Henry Harrison, John Tyler, Zachary Taylor, and Millard Fillmore).
Was Thomas Jefferson democrat or republican? (The actual group to which Jefferson belonged was the  anti-Federalists. The party he helped found was the  Democratic-Republicans, one faction of which became the  Democâ¦ratic Party, and the other the Whigs. )    Thomas Jefferson was neither Republican nor Democrat because the  political platforms of these two parties would not have stood a  chance in his time.
