This week, Junior Infants are learning about eating healthy and how to keep our bones and teeth healthy! We discussed the importance of brushing our teeth as well as the best way to brush our teeth using our new bamboo ‘Moo Crew’ toothbrushes!

The procedure we talked about is below as well as some picture demonstrations:

• Brush two teeth at a time.
• Count to 10 for every two teeth you brush.
• Brush your gums and teeth with a toothbrush and pea- sized amount of fluoride toothpaste in a gentle circular motion.
• Brush top and bottom teeth.
• Brush outside of teeth and gums, inside of teeth and gums and biting surface.
• Spit out after brushing- no rinsing.
