As part of our UOI about ‘Healthy Choices’, this afternoon we had a visit from Dr. Hao and his dental assistants from Tianjin United Family Hospital. He spoke about the different types of teeth we have and how they help us bite and chew our food. He showed us the best way to clean our teeth: use a toothbrush at a 45 degree angle, and use a circular motion when brushing. Then finish off by flossing between your teeth. One of the most interesting things we learnt was how healthy foods; particularly those high in calcium, are good for us because they help us grow strong healthy teeth. Dr. Alex encouraged us to limit the amount of sugar we eat, which can be found in juice, candy and cookies. We were all extremely lucky to receive gift bags full of goodies which included a brand new toothbrush, toothpaste, and a teddy bear. We will all have pearly white smiles now thanks to you, to Dr. Hao!

Alden was excited to show us his goody bag today. And then he showed me how to get to the ‘healthy choices’ games from the library OPAC.
He is really enjoying this unit. Thanks!
I’m thrilled to hear this! Happy brushing!
I wish I had learned to brush my teeth properly in Grade 2 – I could have avoided a few cavities! Ugh!
Well done for making healthy choices for your teeth.
Yours
Ms. Nicol
