Long, long ago, there was a lizard. He invented a magical set of teeth. He thought of fixing those teeth on one of his toads. After the magical teeth were fixed, the toad became a happy and smiling amphibian. He ate everything and started speaking, too. Once, the lizard noticed that the toad was getting fond of eating candies. “I am enjoying these candies a lot,” said the toad, merrily. “Look after your teeth, Mr. Toad. Brush them and keep them clean so that they may stay cavity-free. Too many sweets will spoil your teeth…” The lizard kept instructing the toad. But the toad did not pay any attention. Gradually, the toad’s teeth started decaying. He discovered to his shock, that there were holes in his teeth! Then the poor toad’s teeth started falling off. And soon, the toad lost all his teeth and also the ability to talk. Poor Mr. Toad! If he had kept his teeth clean, he would not have lost them!
