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).
The last President of the US who was neither Democrat or Republican was Millard Fillmore (1850-1853), who was a member of the Whig party. One could argue that the last (and only) President who wasn't a member of any political party was George Washington.s was also pointed out, the last non Republican or Democrat to become president was Millard Fillmore. You could also argue that John Tyler and Andrew Johnson (as mentioned by Andrew Stein) were not really affiliated with a party while they were in office.
