Take care of your teeth.

A great smile is one of your greatest assests, so take good care of your teeth.  Brush your teeth, and use mouthwash, at least twice a day.  Floss daily, and see your dentist regularly.  When you take good care of your teeth they can last a lifetime and you may never have to get dentures.  Nothing says good health quite like a happy, healthy mouth.
Your Great Grandfather stressed the importance of brushing your teeth while I was growing up.  He believed an unhealthy mouth can cause bad germs and sickness, which is very true.  He also believed caring for your teeth is a part of good hygiene, which is directly related to self-esteem, self-confidence, and motivation.  In other words, not brushing your teeth is a sign of laziness.  One day when my sister and I forgot to brush our teeth, your Great Grandfather made us sit in the kitchen with a bucket, and brush our teeth for an entire hour.  That was certainly no fun, and we learned our lesson.  So take care of your teeth so I don't have to teach you a lesson. : )
