Teeth are important part of our body． Everyone should brush his or her teeth every day． Learning how to take care of teeth is very important．

The importance of brushing teeth

If you eat and do not brush your teeth，pieces of food that stick to your teeth can cause problems．The food can damage（破坏）your teeth．Then germs（细菌）can get into your teeth and make them decay（腐烂）．

It is important to brush teeth every day．You should get a checkup from your dentist every year．Trying not to eat food that has a lot of sugar，such as candy and soft drinks，helps to protect teeth．

The proper ways of brushing teeth

Do you know that most people do not brush their teeth in the right way？ Follow the methods below and they will help you keep your teeth healthy，clean and beautiful．

Replace your toothbrush every few months．

Clean two or three teeth at a time． Brush the front of your teeth with a circular motion（运动）and clean the backs of your teeth with up and down motions．

Use a gentle back and forth motion to clean the tops of your teeth where you bite （咬）into food．

Don't forget to gently brush the top of your tongue （舌头）from back to front．A lot of germs live there．

Take at least 2 minutes to brush your teeth．

Her grandmother agreed．"We have resources （资源）now that we didn't have years ago．Now，packages are flown across the ocean．Because airplanes travel so fast，packages arrive very quickly． Now our economy（经济）depends on fast delivery（快递）!"
