How it works
We brush our teeth in the morning and at night.
Food can stick to teeth, so we brush every side: the fronts, the backs and the tops.
We spit the toothpaste out. We do not swallow it.
Worked examples
A tiny dot
- Squeeze a tiny dot of toothpaste on a small, soft brush.
- It is no bigger than a pea.
- Brush, brush, brush!
Every side
- Start with the fronts.
- Then the backs, and then the tops.
- Brush in slow circles, so every tooth gets a turn.
Spit it out
- Spit the foam into the sink: spit, spit, spit!
- Do not swallow the toothpaste.
- Look in the mirror and smile at your sparkly clean teeth.
A friendly dentist
- A dentist is a helper who looks after teeth.
- Open wide and say aah.
- The dentist looks with a tiny mirror, and the visit is friendly.
