He uhi pale lahilahi nā mea sila niho i kau ʻia ma luna o kēia mau ʻauwaha. Hoʻopaʻa kēia i nā ʻauwaha a pale i ka paʻa ʻana o ka meaʻai. He mea maʻamau kēia i nā keiki ʻōpio.

- Ke aʻo ʻana iā ʻoe pehea e palaki pono ai i kou mau niho: He mea nui loa kēia. ʻAʻole lawa ka hoʻomaʻemaʻe ʻia ʻana o kou mau niho e ka poʻe loea. Pono ʻoe e mālama pono i kou mau niho ma ka home. E aʻo aku kahi kauka niho iā ʻoe i ke ala kūpono e palaki ai i kou mau niho a me ka floss. E noʻonoʻo he alahaka niho kāu. E aʻo lākou iā ʻoe i nā ala kūikawā e hoʻomaʻemaʻe ai ma lalo. A i ʻole inā he mau implants niho kāu, e aʻo aku lākou iā ʻoe i nā pulumu a me nā huahana maikaʻi loa e hoʻohana ai e hoʻomaʻemaʻe iā lākou.
