Dental Health Continued: Exploring Food and Oral Health

6-B has learned all about the types of food that are good for teeth.  We know that sticky, sugary foods don't make our teeth strong and healthy- but can actually cause decay and even cavities. It doesn't mean that we can't enjoy these foods, but we know that we should have them sparingly and be sure to brush our teeth!  We completed a portfolio page documenting which types of food make our teeth happy and sad.
Many friends included the following:
Sad: candy, cupcakes, lollipops, cookies,  raisins, cough drops, doughnuts, jelly beans, and soda
Happy: cheese, nuts, chicken, meat, apples, milk, water, carrots, celery, green beans, pears
