Bigger, Better Teeth
For ___________
The idea of losing baby teeth…
I used to be a baby.
Everyday, I am growing.
When I was born, I didn’t have any teeth.
I drank milk and could not eat any food.
Then, my body grew tiny teeth for my tiny mouth.
These teeth are called “baby teeth”.
I learned to eat cookies, carrots and sandwiches with
my baby teeth.
Guess what! My body has a surprise for me!
My body is growing.
My mouth is growing.
I need bigger teeth for my bigger mouth.
The new teeth are hiding behind my gums.
When the better, bigger
teeth are ready, they will push out my baby
teeth.
This will happen to one tooth at a time.
• One day, a baby tooth will get pushed out.
• Then, there will be a hole.
• Then, a better, bigger tooth will come in.
I can feel a hole where the tooth was with my tongue.
Soon, a better bigger tooth will grow in its place.
People have feelings about “baby teeth”.
• Some people feel excited about getting new teeth.
• Some people feel nervous.
• Some people save their tiny “baby teeth”.
Baby teeth get loose before they come out.
• Some people wiggle their loose teeth.
• Some people ignore their loose teeth.
• Will I wiggle my loose baby tooth?
• Where will I put my baby tooth when it comes out?
These are great questions!
