Last week we learned all about teeth as part of national tooth day. Today we were very lucky to get a visit from a dentist. Jahangir's daddy is a dentist and he took time out of his very busy day to come and talk to all the boys and girls in our class. He told us how to care for our teeth. He told us we need to brush our teeth twice a day and most importantly at night. We should brush our teeth for three minutes. We are going to ask our mammys and daddys to time us next time we brush. Dr Rashid brought a model of our teeth along to show us how to brush correctly. We learned it is very important to brush the back teeth as sometimes we miss them. We learned we do not need to cover our tooth brush in tooth paste, a pee size amount is just fine. First we should rince our mouth out, then brush horizontally but with our tooth brush facing slightly upwards towards our nose. Another important tip Dr Rashid gave us was it is important to brush your gums aswel as your teeth.
