Hi there! Today, we’re going to learn how to brush our teeth. It’s super important to keep our teeth clean and healthy. Are you ready? Let’s get started!
First, let’s gather everything we need:
Let’s prepare our toothbrush. First, get it wet by dipping it in water or holding it under the tap. Then, squeeze a little bit of toothpaste onto the bristles. You only need a small amount, about the size of a pea.
Now, let’s brush our teeth! We should brush for about two minutes. That’s like singing your favorite song twice!
Imagine your mouth is a big pizza with four slices. We will brush each slice for 30 seconds. Spend 15 seconds on the outside and 15 seconds on the inside of each slice.
Hold your toothbrush so it’s flat against your teeth. Move it in little circles. This helps clean all the parts of your teeth.
Your front teeth are important, but your back teeth need love too! Make sure to brush them well, just like the front ones.
Did you know your tongue needs brushing too? It can have tiny germs on it. Brush your tongue up and down to keep your breath fresh and your mouth happy.
When you’re done brushing, rinse your mouth with water to wash away the toothpaste. Remember, take your time and don’t rush when you brush!
Great job! Now your teeth are sparkling clean. Keep brushing every day to keep your smile bright!
Toothbrush Painting: Let’s use our toothbrushes for a fun art project! Dip a clean toothbrush in some watercolor paint and gently brush it on a piece of paper. Try making little circles, just like when you brush your teeth. What patterns can you create? This activity helps us remember the circular motion we use when brushing our teeth.
Time to Sing and Brush: Choose your favorite song and sing it while pretending to brush your teeth. Remember, we brush for two minutes, which is like singing your song twice! This helps us practice brushing for the right amount of time. Can you think of other songs that last about two minutes?
Tooth Detective: After brushing your teeth, look in the mirror and see if you can spot any areas you might have missed. Use a small flashlight to help you see better. This will help you learn to check your teeth carefully and make sure they’re all clean. Can you find all the parts of your “pizza” mouth?

Let’s brush our teeth! We have a tube of toothpaste, a toothbrush, water, and of course, your mouth.
First, we need to prepare the toothbrush. Start by getting your toothbrush wet by dipping it in water or under a running tap. Squeeze a pea-sized amount of toothpaste onto the bristles of your toothbrush.
Next, let’s learn the best way to brush your teeth. Brushing your teeth should take about two minutes in total. Section your mouth into quarters and focus on one quarter for every 30 seconds of brushing—15 seconds on the outside and 15 seconds on the inside.
Let’s practice brushing our teeth together. Angle your toothbrush so that it sits horizontally along the front of your teeth. Remember to use a circular brushing pattern.
Your smile is definitely a good indicator of your dental hygiene, but don’t forget that your front teeth only take up a portion of your mouth, and your back teeth need to be brushed just as much.
Do you think we’re done yet? No, not quite! The last place to brush is your tongue. Brush your tongue up and down. Did you know your tongue can harbor bacteria just like your teeth? Removing it will help prevent bad breath and protect your teeth.
Finally, wash out the remaining toothpaste in your mouth under a tap. Remember, don’t rush when you brush!
