Taking Care of Your Teeth

Your teeth are very

important to your health.

Without strong teeth you

cannot eat the foods that

your body needs. Food can get stuck

between your teeth. Sugar coats your teeth.

The food and sugar can put holes called

cavities in your teeth.

You should brush your teeth every

morning and every night. Brushing well

gets food and sugar off your teeth. Two

times a year you should visit you dentist, a

doctor who takes care of teeth. The dentist

will clean your teeth and fill any cavities

you might have.
