GOING TO THE DENTIST

I'm going to the dentist today.

They'll clean my teeth for me.

While I'm there they'll take an Xray.

I hope they don't see even one cavity.

I brush my teeth to keep them clean

and use dental floss each day.

I want my teeth to be bright and gleam

and I hope they stay that way.

     What is the rhyming pattern on this poem?  Do you like going to the dentist?  My dentist always gives me a new tooth brush.  Do you have sealants on your teeth?  Do you get a fluoride treatment?  Having clean, strong teeth is important for good health.  Your dentist and dental hygienist can help with this.  Can you write a poem about your dentist, or your teeth today?  Have fun.
