Hello little toothy

Welcome back to my mouth 

You’re my newest molar 

That I lost a few months south.

–

I promise not to mistreat you 

In eating, work, or play

So that you’ll never leave me 

As you did that day.

–

I will brush and floss you 

And handle you with care

So that I won’t further lose you 

And have a mouth that’s bare.

–

So today I got to the dentist 

To add you to my teeth 

My mouth’ll be a little fuller 

Much to my relief.
