Mrs Wallbridge and Mrs Ross came to talk to us about keeping our teeth clean and healthy. They are both dental technicians. We shared a few questions with Mrs Wallbridge to get more information about our teeth that we did not know. She read the first question which was “ How do our teeth turn yellow?” I learn’t that our age is one of the reasons why we get yellow teeth. When we get older, our teeth slowly starts to turn yellow. Coffee, curry and smoking turns our teeth yellow as well. Smoking turns our teeth black and yellow. That was really gross. Then she carried on answering the other questions.
Once all the questions were answered, then Mrs Wallbridge got started with her dental presentation. There was a few frightening photos that I did not like. Mrs Wallbridge was really interesting because she had a Scottish accent. I never knew that if you get knocked out and your tooth falls out, then you softly clean it and stick the tooth back in the cap. She also gave us a lot of tips on brushing our teeth. Such as using a soft toothbrush, brushing our teeth slowly and softly. She also mentioned that if you go to South Africa and you buy a bag of onions or vegetables, then you can use the bag as floss for your teeth if you run out of floss. It was all fascinating to me and I will make sure that my teeth will stay clean and healthy.

ReplyDeleteI thought that your recount about the dental presentation was fantastic. You had a huge amount of information and that tells me that you were listening a lot in the presentation. I also listened a lot in the presentation. Which slide was your most favourite and shocked you ?
