P4 had a special visitor - A Dentist!

19th Nov 2019

This afternoon, P4 pupils were very excited to have a visit from Andrew’s mummy who told us all about her job as a dentist.  We have been learning about teeth so it was great to have an expert come into class and explain what dentists do and why it is so important to look after our teeth. Mrs Gardiner showed us the masks and gloves that she wears, her instruments, x-rays of teeth and some real teeth that hadn’t been looked after -yuck! We learned about healthy snacks to eat and the proper way to brush our teeth.

We asked lots of questions and got a tube of toothpaste to take home. A massive thank you to Mrs Gardiner for giving up her time and helping us learn.  We’re all off home to check when our next dental appointment is!
