Smile!” So you do—you open your mouth and show your teeth. Healthy teeth help you to look your best. Do you know how to take care of them? Brush your teeth Long ago, when people got older, their teeth would rot away. Rotting teeth give people toothache. To avoid a toothache, people pulled the bad tooth out. Finally they learned that cleaning their teeth was important. But they didn’t have toothpaste then. They tried things such as chalk and lemon juice. About 100 years ago, someone finally made a paste to clean teeth. Not long after that, someone invented the toothpaste tube. That way people could put the paste right onto the toothbrush. Tooth brushing became popular during World War II. The US Army gave brushes and toothpaste to all soldiers. They learned to brush twice a day. Today there are all kinds of toothpastes. Toothpastes come in different colors and flavors. When you choose your toothpaste, make sure it has fluoride. Fluoride makes your teeth strong.
