Morning Starters: Autumn 2 - Teeth
Did You Know?
Have you ever had a wobbly tooth or a tooth ache? Tiny germs can cause this! They feed on sugar from food and drinks and produce acid that can wear away teeth. This creates holes called cavities, which can hurt and may even cause a tooth to fall out. The best ways to keep your teeth healthy are to brush twice a day, limit sugary snacks and visit the dentist regularly.
