Use the larger size marshmallows for the back molar teeth and chop to size.Attach the marshmallow teeth in the correct order; molars on the side on the ends, one canine on each side and four incisors across the front. Let dry and use the model to point out how food can get stuck in ridges and spaces. Practice flossing with some dental floss. What to try!Using pink card make a tongue.
