party in my mouth...

the dentist came to speak to my class last week. i have had nightmares ever since.

she told a story (with pictures) of what is going on in a mouth...

There are little bad bacteria people who are having a huge party eating the food that gets stuck in between teeth...then after they are all full and pass out... they poop, yeah they crap out all the food that they ingested all over the teeth and their poop eats away at the teeth.

if there is enough of the little bad bacteria guys poop laying around...your teeth start to get all mushy and sort of melt, which is a cavity.

i have always been an avid teeth brusher but i have increased my brushing from twice a day to at least 3-4 times a day...no little bad bacteria guy is going to poop on my teeth!
