After turning 7, your children will be feeling very big and grown up and will enjoy the independence of brushing their teeth themselves. Here are a few reminders that you might want to share and reinforce:

• They should brush each tooth with a gentle circular motion and remember to include the gum line.

• It's important to clean the front, back, top and bottom - but gently!
• It takes 2 whole minutes of brushing to get teeth really clean.

• Brushing properly means that greater amounts of plaque will be removed.
• Tell them to spit. The fluoride will continue to protect their teeth after brushing.

There's a great range of activities for kids to explore in Nurdle World, the place where Milky, Lilly and Billy live, work and play and your child is always invited. We've created Nurdle World to give kids the chance to learn all about their teeth and how to look after them with the help of the Nurdles. It's about having fun and learning good habits. They'll soon be telling you how to care for your teeth!
