Several dental health science experiments are also included in this unit! Students will complete science experiments about the importance of taking care of their teeth, brushing, dental sealants, fluoride, flossing, and toothpaste. As students complete the dental science experiments, students will write about their observations using the included observation journals and writing templates!

Students will continue their dental health exploration by completing fun craft and writing activities on the topics of parts of a tooth, the importance of flossing, how to take care of their teeth, and the Tooth Fairy. The dental health writing activities will expose students to informational, opinion, narrative, and persuasive writing.
