Toothland: Home of the Toothkins" by Christine LaSpina has become an instant favorite among my first-grade students, captivating their imaginations with its enchanting tale and lovable characters.
As a teacher, finding books that engage and educate young minds is paramount, and "Toothland" accomplishes this beautifully. From the moment we opened the book, the vibrant illustrations drew my students in, setting the stage for a magical adventure in a land where teeth reign supreme.
As an educator, I appreciate the book's ability to reinforce concepts we discuss in the classroom in a fun and engaging way. It has sparked an interest in oral hygiene among my students, leading to lively discussions about their dental habits and encouraging them to take better care of their teeth.
I highly recommend it to fellow educators and parents looking for a charming story that promotes healthy habits and encourages imagination. We eagerly anticipate future adventures from this charming series!
"I have been trying fun things to help desensitize my daughter from the fear of the dentist. I bought this book as a follow up from another book from this author called A Christmas Tooth because she enjoyed the first book so much. Now I am reading her this one and she absolutely loves it just as much and asks me when I am getting her the next one! Anyway, great children’s book. Thanks"
Dental Facts
First Dental Visit: It's recommended to take children to the dentist for their first checkup after the first tooth appears or by the time they turn 1. Early visits help establish good oral habits and monitor dental development.
Fluoridation Benefits: Fluoride plays a crucial role in children's dental health by strengthening tooth enamel and preventing cavities. Fluoride is a natural mineral that helps prevent cavities in children and adults by making teeth more resistant to acid attacks that cause decay. Fluoride has been proven safe and effective, reducing tooth decay by about 25% in children and adults.
Recommended Brushing Habits:
-
Infant's (Birth to First Tooth): Gently wipe the baby's gums with a clean, damp washcloth or gauze after each feeding.​
-
Toddlers (1 to 3 Years Old): Brush the child's teeth twice a day using a baby toothbrush with a smear of fluoride toothpaste (about the size of a grain of rice).​
-
Preschoolers (3 to 5 Years Old): Brush twice daily with a pea-sized amount of fluoride toothpaste, supervising to ensure thorough cleaning.
Role of Diet in Oral Health: The consumption of sugars has been associated with an increased risk of developing dental caries (cavities). Limiting sugary snacks and drinks can significantly reduce this risk
