What Are The Differences Between Caucasian And Asian Teeth? I Need A Website That Shows Mouth Profiles?

I just want to see the evolution of the teeth. Maybe get an explanation why there are differences other than availability of dental care.

there are slight variances, e.g., I believe Asians have more complex root canal systems in general than Caucasians. I don’t know of any textbooks specifically that concentrate on this kind of stuff. Probably the best approach would be to look at highly-specialized textbooks for the different dental specialties to see what they have to say. These books may be at a dental/medical university.
Fluoride sources available would be a more likely cause of lack of caries than race. Other factors include bacteria resident in different mouths, saliva composition, and types of food eaten in the culture (e.g. abrasive or sugary) to start.
