School visit

Last Friday, Mark went in to Burgess Hill School for Girls to talk to a class of 8 years old about his job as a dentist at Dental Healthcare Practice. He told them all about the effect of sugar on their teeth and how it can lead to fillings, how to look after their teeth, and dental hygiene. At the end of the session, he answered lots of their questions, including tricky ones such as “Do you know the tooth fairy?” and “Why are teeth white, and not pink or blue?” At least half of the girls expressed interest in a career as a dentist, so Mark told them all to work hard in their science lessons!
