Tooth care tips
 

Take good care of your teeth all your life!
 

Each of us only has two “sets” of teeth. The first are deciduous teeth (also known as milk teeth), which are later replaced by permanent adult teeth. But do you know that your first molars (also called six-year molars) only grow once? Once they have erupted, they are ready to be with you all your life. They are not milk teeth at all! Your six-year molars are permanent teeth and they are not replaced at any stage of life. They will be with you for a long time, provided that you become good friends with your toothbrush and toothpaste!
 

How should you take care of your teeth at a young age? Here are a couple of tooth care tips offered by our friend Jerry the Dragon::

1. Brush your teeth at least twice a day – after your breakfast and before bedtime.
2. If possible, brush your teeth after each meal, however small it may be.
3. Brush your teeth after eating sweets… even after having a little candy.
4. When you wake up in the middle of the night and feel like a drink, have a glass of water.
5. Visit your dentist (and me!) regularly, every 4 months.
