Hello, Terence the Tooth here. This is my first ever time on a computer and I‘m pretty excited. In the coming months I‘m going to tell you everything I know about teeth and once a month I‘ll hold a quiz based on all the fun stuff I tell you and will be giving away cinema and Chessington World of Adventures tickets.
This month I'm here to tell you about me and the ways you can help me stay strong! Everytime you have a fizzy drink or a bar of chocolate it makes me a little bit smaller and a little bit weaker. Don't get me started when you forget to clean your teeth, lets just say that stuff starts sticking to me and it gets a bit scary! You see you may not realize it, but everything you eat or drink affects me in some way, strangely the things you like to drink I hate, fizzy drinks and crisps, that's why I love going to the dentist! Those kind men and women clean me, dust me off and help make me stronger. You see, you don't get many teeth so the more you look after me, the longer I'll stay around!
To stop me falling out and you looking silly it's really important to brush your teeth every morning and every night. You have a shower or bath every day so why shouldn't I.
What you do in the days can also affect how I feel. The more sugary foods you eat, the weaker I'll become. The problem is sugary foods are tasty!! Why not talk to your mum and dad and promise to eat better things such as fruit, vegetables and drink milk.
I'm sure they'll let you have a treat every now and then, parents get impressed when you eat good things!
Dentist's are fun! All they want to do is make your teeth healthy and shiny. So come along, hop on the fun moving chair and help make me strong!
I hope you’ve learnt something new from this! I might be a tooth but I’ve got some power. I’ve made up a quiz below that you can all take to see how much has sunk in. I’ll change these questions every month so make sure you check in with me soon. The better you do the more chance you have of winning the prizes!!!
