Dental Talk

Last week, we went down to the hall to listen  a Dental talk by a Dental Hygienist who came from a dental clinic. She came and talked to us about how to keep our teeth clean and strong. She also talked to us about food and drinks that had sugar in it and were bad for our teeth. I learnt that a can of baked beans has sugar in it.
