Our Forsyth Kids team really misses seeing your smiling
faces at your school! Even though we can't see you right
now, we still want to help keep your smiles healthy. We
put together a list of videos and activities that will help
you keep your mouth healthy while you are learning at
home.
1) BRUSH AND FLOSS - Remember to brush your teeth 2
times everyday for 2 minutes each time - once when you
wake up and once before bed. Use a toothpaste with
fluoride to help make your teeth strong! Also don't forget
to use floss to clean between your teeth - your toothbrush
is too big to clean there!
2) HEALTHY FOODS, HEALTHY TEETH - Healthy foods
and snacks will keep your teeth strong and keep the sugar
bugs away! Foods that are good for our bodies - like fruits
and veggies - are good for our teeth.
3) DRINK WATER - Drinking water keeps both your
mouth and body healthy. Don't forget the water from your
sink has fluoride vitamins to make your teeth strong!
