Oral health educators, a MouthWise oral healthcare education, virtually guarantees children will enjoy lifetime oral health benefits for life. For them to enjoy lifetime oral health benefits we have created the 10 MouthWise Oral Health Books. For them to enjoy lifetime oral health benefits we have created the MouthWise Oral Health C.D. For them to enjoy lifetime oral health benefits oral health educators expend a lot of time and effort. Impress these thoughts on your children. They will reap the benefits, we supply the MouthWise oral healthcare education to educate them.
Children’s smiles are the key to their future. I ask everyone involved in children’s education, especially in children’s health education and in children’s home education to be more concerned with and to take more responsibility for children’s oral health education. The smiling faces of primary school children in a primary school, indeed in all primary schools and K-12 schools, are still being adversely affected by easily preventable diseases such as bad breath, bleeding gums, holes in teeth, plaque on teeth, plaque on gums, swollen gums, scale on teeth. Every tooth and the gum will stay healthy forever if given the chance. The names ‘tooth brush’ and ‘tooth paste’ contribute to many oral diseases such as plaque build up and sore gums because they send wrong messages to children. Our better oral hygiene instruction, our correct nomenclature and our lessons in oral healthcare, not just in hygiene, will banish plaque, tooth decay, tooth abscess and stop bad breath forever. Please help children learn how to stop plaque, arrest decay, to take better care of the beautiful things in their mouth; their teeth, gums and tongue. Everyone can eliminate all oral diseases forever. With a simple ‘swish’, they are easily preventable diseases! I hope you find these Lesson Instructions helpful.

Lesson 8
Hello and Welcome, Oral HealthCare Educators,
I will always remind you at each ‘Visit’ that oral health is an inheritance. Oral disease, on the other hand, is an infliction, usually a self-infliction, and usually the result of neglect and or of lack of knowledge and understanding and or of poor advice. It is absolutely true that the common oral diseases, tooth decay, gum disease and bad breath are easily preventable.
Throughout these 10 “Visits to GarGar The Dentist” we want to give children information, advice and instructions, tailored especially for them to be able to understand, which will make them knowledgeable in all aspects of oral disease prevention. We want children to become self-motivated to prevent oral disease throughout their lifetime. The key to their oral health is their self-motivation to prevent oral disease and that is our goal!
Web-Lesson 8 Objective :
In “Visit 8 to GarGar The Dentist” our strategy is to give children information which will help them to make only sensible food and drink choices. Information which will help them to recognise which ingredients in foods and drinks and in toothpastes are either potentially harmful or helpful or harmless to the structures in their mouth.
To learn to recognise which ingredients in foods, in drinks and in toothpastes are potentially either Harmful or Helpful or Harmless to structures in the mouth.

The Treat Stamp is reminding you how important it is to treat your tongue if you are to succeed in fighting plaque monkey business.
Page 2 :
Croc-O-Smile’s remarks are very interesting. If ever there is anything you do not completely understand, then an excellent thing you can easily do to help you is to draw the problem over and over again, getting it as close to, if not better, than GarGar’s drawings in the magazines Also as you draw, imagine it is the things in your own mouth you are drawing..
Page 3 :
PadPaw says drawing good teeth, then drawing bad teeth has helped him to understand. It is the same with gums and tongues.
GarGar The Dentist is suggesting that what you are learning to do or to not do is going to be important for you do or to not do for the rest of your life. Especially if you want your teeth, gums and tongue to be healthy always and your smile to shine forever.
Ruby Roo is very wise to avoid sugary drinks and fizzy drinks.
Page 4 :
What Booksie Ow says is very good advice for everyone.
Page 5 :
On the top of the page GarGar The Dentist says it is important to know about the bad things that can happen in your mouth. But if you also know how to stop bad things from happening then you will have nothing to worry about.
KookaMum knows which snacks contain harmful X.Y.Z.
Please read the Treat Stamp very carefully. The first part of treating is to get rid of all the plaque and rubbish.
Page 6 :
GarGar tells you you have had all of the scary visits. That is great news is it not ? You are now going to find out which are the harmful things to avoid, which are the helpful things to choose and thse which are harmless when in your mouth.
Page 7 :
If you have the lists of healthy foods and drinks from the last two visits you can compare them with the lists you will find on Page 9.
Also perhaps, before you read Page 9, you might like to make your own list of foods and drinks which you think could be harmful then compare it with the list on Page 9.
Web-Lesson 8 Text :
Read the text on Page 8 and Page 9. Read it several times. I am sure you could add more things to each of the lists. Keep the lists you make and add to them when you think of anything you can add which could be either helpful or harmful or harmless.
Then on Page 10 you could make lists of the harmful and helpful things you could buy at each of the 6 shops.
