Oral Hygiene Visit
As part of our science unit on digestion, we have been learning about teeth. We have been finding out why we have different shaped teeth and how they help us eat and idgest our food. We learnt that it was important to look after our teeth and keep them healthy.
To help us understand how to look after our teeth really well, a nurse from the James Paget Hospital came to talk to us . She showed us how to brush our teeth properly.
We had to chew a tablet which turned our mouths purple. This showed any plaque or tartar. We knew our teeth were clean when we had no purple left.
