My teeth are made of a soft kind of bone, covered with enamel.

I have three kinds of teeth: cutting teeth, tearing teeth, grinding teeth.

A young child has twenty teeth, ten in each jaw.

A grown person has thirty-two teeth, sixteen in each jaw.

6. To preserve my teeth:

I must keep them clean.

I must not scratch the enamel.

I must not eat or drink anything very hot or very cold.

I must not use them for scissors or nut-crackers.

I must not burn them with tobacco or cigars.
