A visit from The Dental Nurses

Welcome back to Term 3. We are starting the year with taking a good look at our Dental Health and making sure we have sensible food in our lunch boxes.

Today we had a visit from Nicola and Jane to teach us how to clean our teeth correctly.

Nicola and Jane brought huge teeth and a huge toothbrush with them.

Riley is learning to do flicks from the inside.

Daniel is flicking the front teeth.

Stevie is doing circle on the outside.

Asjah is doing circles on the outside teeth at the back.

Ava is working out which type of brushing to do.

We also learnt these important things:-

*We must brush our teeth for 2 minutes in the morning after breakfast and after tea.
*Mum , Dad or another adult or big person must help us until we are 8 years old.
*We mustn't rinse the toothpaste off our teeth when we finish brushing with a soft brush.
*We must only use a small piece of toothpaste the size of our small nail,

And the song that helps us is:-

"Round in circles, round in circles,
Scrub, scrub, scrub.
Flick around the inside, flick around the inside,
Teeth are clean, teeth are clean."
