Enamel
The hardest tissue in the human body, covering the outermost layer of the tooth.
About 96% of it is made of minerals (hydroxyapatite), making it very hard; however, once damaged, it does not regenerate on its own. It is vulnerable to acid and can be dissolved by cavities or acid erosion, so protecting it is important.
