Dental Care 101: Basic Oral Hygiene

Listen. I get it. No one wants to brush their teeth and there’s not a soul in sight who would willingly floss. But dental care is super important! Did you know that most health issues could be fixed if only the sorry Neopian took better care of their teeth? I know that the Tooth Faerie has been away for a while and that everyone has been slacking—but she taught me a thing or two before she went on vacation, and I’m here to get everyone back on track to getting teeth so shiny, even Sloth would be jealous! My name is Harpedy, the Tooth Faerie’s newest (and most fashionable!) apprentice, and I’m here to give all you amazing Neopians some amazing advice on how to keeping your chompers happy, healthy, and shining! So why not take a few moments to see what I have to say? Dental Care 101 The most important thing about dental care is knowing what you’re taking care of! Everyone knows where their teeth are, but do you know why your teeth are? Teeth come in different shapes and sizes, perfectly adapted to the foods you’re trying to eat. Whether you’re a Grarrl who’ll eat anything, a Kyrii with a preference for fine dining, or a Lupe wanting to sink your teeth into a Chia … er, a Chia Biscuit, that is! Not all Neopians have the same dental care needs, but the advice I’m offering is generic enough that everyone should get some benefits from it. One important thing is to never put sharp objects in your mouth! Not only can you hurt yourself (sharp things are pointy!), but you could accidentally chip a tooth.
