     Dr. Linda King
    Alias known as
    Cadance’s mom
Why Teeth? What do they do?
• Help you smile
• Smiling is how
We let Other
 people Know we
 like them

And how we let them know we like them back.
What do teeth do?
• Help you speak
• Without teeth, people have a hard time
  sounding out the F, S, V and Th sounds
What do teeth do?
• Help you do the most favorite thing ever---
What should you be eating?




             • Decisions… Decisions…
What is Healthy?




Horses are built for fast running, beauty and power. You can
see their sleek and beautiful mane and are well taken care of.
These gorgeous animals eat… carrots, hay, grass, apples.,
water and a lot of it. They have great energy
What is healthy?
        • What does this lobster
          eat?
        • Everything it can find on
          the bottom of the
          ocean floor. Is it
          beautiful and sleek? It
          hides out at the bottom
          of the ocean.
What is healthy?
Does this look healthy?   This is a city rat
                          • It eats anything it can find –
                            scavenges for food. Look at
                            its coat – is it shiny and
                            smooth like the horse?
In order for to you to be healthy, you
need to have good nutrition and teeth
              to chew food




                                            • Green leafy
                                              salads


               Would the horse eat these?
What is not healthy?
          Without teeth, it makes it
          difficult to chew your food
          • How well do you think this
            gentleman can chew his
            food?
          • Look at his skin
          • He is limited to soft, non-
            nutritious foods
A lot of people are in this boat..
How well do you think this
person can eat an apple with   THESE?
You still have shark teeth

• Some come out
• Others come in
What lies underneath….
Excitement!!!!
After the fireworks….




            The Clean up
We Need to Clean Up…. Everywhere
• Teeth
• Gums
• Tongue
Floss floss floss – Why???
Brushing doesn’t get it all




           What’s hiding between your teeth?
GET WHAT?????
• The Acid Monsters!!!! AAAAAHHHH




  These guys live in your mouth– They will melt your
  teeth
How do you get rid of them??
• You Don’t…… You only can reduce their
  numbers
• AND--------
     Refuse to feed them!

What do the acid monsters eat???
Anything with Sugar
          Sugar bugs
          Melt your teeth


          • Sugar comes in many forms
            drinks, candy, cookies, dried
            fruit, fruit roll ups, peanut
            butter, bread
• Lemons
• Limes
• Oranges Limit the time the Acids in you Mouth-
               Just don’t put them in your mouth very long
2 hours!!
It takes 2 hours for the acids   So you are always doing math
To go away after eating so       • Drink water after you eat
Don’t snack all day on           • Pair them with something
    carbohydrates – they break      else like a vegetable
    down in your mouth           • Celery, carrots, broccoli,
What foods are good for
your teeth?
High protein
Veggies
Nuts
Cheese
Milk
Yogurt
Seeds (sunflower)
Limit- use in Moderation

Sugars, Carbohydrates, Crackers,
         Juices, Bread,
Need to brush and floss all of the teeth

Not just the ones in the front   Not just the ones in the back
 How much
• Every surface                  • And your tongue
 toothpaste should
 you use
               Brush             • With or without toothpaste




               brush
               brush
See Your Dentist Every Year
                                 Braces align and straighten your teeth,
Hopefully 2 times per year       making room for the new adult teeth
• We will check how and
  where your teeth are
  growing in and make
  recommendations to your
  parents if you may need
  braces in the future.
• We check for cavities
• We may remove wiggly
  teeth
• We will clean them in places
  you cannot reach
• What are sealants?
Sealants
Sealants are a coating that fills in the
grooves of your adult molars
preventing cavities from growing
inside of the pits and grooves of your
teeth that are too small for your
toothbrush to fit
What is a cavity? How can you
        prevent them?
Healthy diet
• Brush 2 times per day
• Lots of Green leafy vegetables – look for anything
  with a lot of color – they are the best for you
• See your dentist to make sure teeth are coming in
  straight and to prevent new cavities
• Fix the small cavities so they don’t become big
  ones and cause pain
• Keep your teeth shiny and bright
• The teeth you have need to last another 90 years
  – are you up for the challenge?
