Ever wondered how well you brush your teeth? Lets find out how clean your teeth really are!

What You'll Need:

What To Do:

1. Protect Your Clothes: Cover your clothes with a towel or apron to keep them clean.

2. Protect Your Lips: Put some lip balm on your lips to protect them from the colouring.

3. Paint Your Teeth: Use a cotton bud to paint liquid food coloring on all the surfaces of your teeth. If you don't have food colouring, you can use turmeric mixed with water.

4. Spit: Spit out into the sink.

5. Check the Colour: Look in the mirror to see how much colour is left on your teeth. The colour shows where you need to brush better. Who's teeth were the cleanest?

6. Brush Away: Now, brush your teeth really well to see how much cleaner you can get them.
