Share your memories of teeth cleaning as a child and Tooth Fairy tales with Bupa: you could win £500 of dental vouchers NOW CLOSED

[AnnMumsnet]

We have been asked by the team at Bupa to find out your views and memories of teeth cleaning when you were a child and your Tooth Fairy tales.

They ask "what do you remember your parents telling you when you were little about the importance of brushing your teeth? We'd love to know your anecdotes and memories. Did you sing a song together? Perhaps you played a game to make it more fun. Did you get told any stories about the Tooth Fairy? Do you use any of the same methods to get your DC to make sure they are brushing their teeth properly?"

Bupa has created a fairy tale video telling the story of what happens to teeth when they are collected by the Tooth Fairy. Parents can personalise the video, which includes their DC name and picture to help them keep their teeth nice and clean. Why not start by creating one for your child and inspiring them to look after their teeth?

Everyone who posts on this thread will be entered into a prize draw to win £500 of dental vouchers for the whole family.

You can have an extra chance to win by creating your own child’s video where you'll be given the chance to enter a competition (see link here).

Thanks and good luck,

We brushed twice a day and had those pink disclosing tablets which I loved:) I hated the school dentist though, he had a hairy nose and ears! The tooth fairy was pretty generous so I always tried to get a wobbly tooth out ASAP. my son now loves brushing his teeth, but he sees it as a game still as he is on,y young. Fingers crossed it lasts!

Flouride treatment and flouride tablets. Perhaps a bit extreme but I survived until 38 before needing a filling.

I remember either my dad or my brother getting stung by a wasp whilst I was brushing my teeth. Oral hygiene is painful!

Thanks for all the comments: am pleased to say TiggersAngel7774 wins the £500 of Dental vouchers from BUPA!
