Some kids in my family start losing their milk teeth. 🦷
While we don’t do the tooth fairy 🧚 stuff, I wondered whether there’s any cool kid-friendly experiments 🔬 to do with their deciduous teeth? Like dissolving them in easily available liquids to teach them the importance of brushing, or maybe some material strength tests to show how cool enamel is?
Hit me with some cool ideas, I‘ve got a few teeth to experiment with 😃
That’s always been a pretty misleading interpretation of the experiment.
The experiment is great. It’s good to teach kids about acids and bases and this basic chemistry.
It’s just that the same thing happens if you put a dead tooth in any acid, including the ones that are required for you to live, like vitamin c, and the ones that people drink because they think it’s healthy, like vinegar.
Should I be drinking vinegar out of the bottle instead of dousing my chips with it?
My parents eat spoonfuls of cider vinegar, claiming it helps with arthritis. I tried it once and decided I would rather have the arthritis.
Vinegar is food, not medicine.
Consume it however you want.
I’m going to A&E before this thing cracks inside me.
