Dental nurse visit

Today, we had a visit from the Nurse to talk about dental hygiene. She brought her friend Derick with her. We talked about how to brush our teeth. We learnt that we need to use a pea sized amount of toothbrush, brush our teeth for two minutes in the morning and at night and that we need to spit the toothpaste out and not rinse. The children also decided which foods were good for our teeth and which foods were not. We were amazed to hear that tomato sauce has lots of sugar in it! Your child will have come home with a toothbrushing chart today. It would be great if they could fill them in and bring them back after half term!
