Children are thrilled about their teeth when they can place them under their pillow for the tooth fairy, but when it comes to brushing them, the thrill quickly disappears. You can buy all kinds of toothbrushes made to make brushing fun and flavoured toothpastes help, but children often learn best through story-telling. With that in mind, here are a few books to add to your reading time that will help teach your kids the importance of good dental hygiene.
