I got to spend the morning with Ridgecrest Montessori Children's House sharing with the kids for Children's Oral Health Month.

We learned what foods make our teeth happy - called always foods - and sad - called sometimes foods. 🍎🥕🍦🧁

We did an experiment to see how fluoridated toothpaste can protect an eggshell - simulating tooth enamel - from acid exposure (we used RC Cola as the acid).

We learned the proper way to brush our teeth (small circular motions at the gum line) and practice the skill on fake teeth! 🪥🦷

Thanks for having me, RMCH!

🦷Did you know your mouth is the gateway to your body?🦷

Maintaining good dental hygiene isn’t just about a bright smile—it plays a major role in your overall health.

Poor oral care has been linked to:
-heart disease
-diabetes
-respiratory infections
-complications in pregnancy.

Healthy gums and teeth help reduce inflammation in the body, fight off harmful bacteria, and support your immune system.

Brush, floss—and don’t skip those dental hygiene checkups!
Your whole body will thank you for it.
