Understanding Your Teeth and How to Care for Them

Miacademy & MiaPrep Learning Channel

This educational video provides a comprehensive overview of dental health, tooth anatomy, and hygiene practices tailored for elementary students. Hosted by Kylie, the lesson begins with fascinating developmental facts, such as how teeth begin forming before birth, and explains the lifecycle of human teeth from the first set of baby teeth to the permanent set of 32 adult teeth. It breaks down the specific names and functions of different teeth—incisors for biting, canines for tearing, and molars for grinding—helping students understand the mechanics of eating.
