Here is this week’s homework. Don’t forget it must be finished by Wednesday morning. Complete a minimum of two pieces and if you have any problems, let your teacher know on Monday morning.

English

Your task this week is to write an explanation text about caring for your teeth. Use technical vocabulary that you have learnt in science.

Here is an example:

Taking care of your teeth helps prevent cavities and gum disease.

Brushing and flossing properly can prevent plaque (pronounced: plak), a clear film of bacteria that sticks to your teeth. After you eat, the bacteria break down sugar on your teeth into acids that eat away tooth enamel, causing holes called cavities. Plaque also causes gingivitis, which is gum disease that can make your gums red, swollen, and sore.

To prevent cavities, you need to remove plaque. To do this, brush your teeth twice a day and floss at least once a day. Brushing also stimulates the gums, which helps to keep them healthy and prevent gum disease. Brushing and flossing are the most important things that you can do to keep your teeth and gums healthy.

Use a toothpaste with fluoride to prevent cavities.

Dentists say you should brush your teeth for at least 2 minutes twice a day. Here are some tips on how to brush properly:

  • Hold your brush at a 45-degree angle against your gumline. Gently brush in short (about one tooth-wide) strokes. Brushing too hard can cause receding gums, tooth sensitivity, and, over time, loose teeth.
  • Brush all outside and inside surfaces of your teeth, and the chewing surfaces. Make sure to get into the pits and crevices.
  • You can also gently brush your tongue.
  • Use a timer or play a favorite song while brushing your teeth to get used to brushing for a full 2 to 3 minutes. Some electronic toothbrushes have timers that let you know when 2 minutes are up.

It is so important to look after your teeth so they last a whole lifetime and help you to eat and talk.

    Taking care of our teeth is very important.
    We should brush twice a day.
    One time in the morning and the second time before going to bed.
    There are five different types of teeth.
    Incisors
    The incisors are the eight teeth that are most visible in the front of the mouth and are often called your front teeth. There are eight incisors in total, four on the top and four on the bottom.
    Canines
    Outward in the mouth, the next teeth are the canines. These four teeth are the sharpest teeth of the mouth. The purpose they serve is to rip and tear food apart, making it easier to digest.
    Premolars
    Continuing outward, the premolars, or bicuspids, serve the purpose of chewing and grinding up food.
    Molars
    The molars, or deciduous molars, serve the primary function of chewing and grinding food.
    Third Molars
    The last teeth that will develop, and often the first permanent teeth that will come out, are the third molars.
    To prevent gum disease we should floss our teeth regularly.

    1. Use the right toothbrush.
    For most people, a soft-bristled toothbrush will be the safest choice. Depending on how vigorously you brush your teeth and the strength of your teeth, medium- and hard-bristled brushes could actually damage the gums, root surface, and protective tooth enamel.
    2. Replace old toothbrushes.
    A great toothbrush won’t stay that way for long. A toothbrush will typically have to be thrown out after just a few months of use. Watch for signs the bristles are becoming worn out.
    3. Brush twice a day.
    Brushing just once a day is massively better than not at all, but twice a day is what is really needed. Food can form into plaque in just eight hours, which means that brushing just once per day guarantees lots more plaque on your teeth.
