Fluorine’s Personality• Yellowish coloured gas• 0.001696 grams per cubic centimeter• a boiling point at -188.12 c ̊�• melting point at -219.62 c ̊�• Crystal structure:

When I grow up, I want to be used in dental hygiene. On my third birthday I got a game where you have to reach into a little plastic crocodile’s mouth and gently tap its teeth. If you tapped the unlucky tooth, the mouth snapped shut. That game always made me laugh. Also, it motivated me to brush my teeth well. My parents would always say “if you don’t brush your teeth well enough they will become yellow. If that happens the crocodile won’t want to play with you anymore because you don’t have clean teeth”.

Ever since I have been interested in dental hygiene. Without teeth, there’s not much you could do. For example, you could only eat soup and soft bread. Also, with clean teeth your beauty automatically increases. We see teeth everyday, as they are about at eye level.

I want to be used in toothpaste. Toothpaste tastes good and gives good fresh breath. It is my biggest wish to be mixed into some elmex toothpaste. Elmex toothpaste cleans the teeth well and tastes good too.
