Puppets
So how do you show a patient how to brush? You could demonstrate with your own brush and mouth. You could use the patients brush and mouth (but they wouldn’t be able to see or discuss). Maybe use a mirror? Would demonstration of oral health care be more fun and informative if you could use a puppet? You can count, brush and floss the teeth – the only limit is your imagination.

Discuss dental decay Dental decay happens when the enamel and dentine of a tooth become softened by acid attack, producing a cavity (hole). Dental decay is caused by plaque acids. These are produced when we eat or drink anything that contains sugar. (You can then work through the selected products, discussing which are high in sugar and which would be a healthier option) It is often fun to ask the class to guess the product based on the amount of sugar that McVities Digestive Biscuits 0.63 tsp per biscuit 2.5g per biscuit (16.6g per 100g) Tunnocks Chocolate Wafer-Fully coated 2.62 tsp per biscuit 10.49g per biscuit (34.7g per 100g) McVities Gingernuts 0.77 tsp per biscuit 3.1g per biscuit (31g per 100g) Asda Custard Cream Biscuits 0.87 tsp per biscuit 3.5g per biscuit (29.8g per 100g) it contains.
