Keeping Teeth Healthy

Brush your teeth twice a day with fluoride toothpaste to keep them strong. Clean between your teeth, eat fewer sugary snacks, and visit the dentist for check-ups.

  3. A bowl of apple slices beside a cup of water: a snack and drink with less sugar.
  4. A wall calendar with one date circled: a regular dentist check-up.

Examples

  • Brushing after breakfast and before bed.
