You will need to provide more information. To write a thesis statement follow this: topic + key points + opinion = thesis. An introduction should begin with your general subject and narrow to your thesis statement, which is the last sentence of the intro.

I have a suggestion if you like i t. I just went to this website, which should be listed below, and it basically said a thesis statement has a topic and a comment part-the comment part makes an important point about the topic (the effects of poor oral hygiene and....). You said you have to write a persuasive essay, so I assume you mean you want to persuade people to take better care of their teeth so these awful things won't happen.

So maybe something like "Stringent oral hygiene habits must be maintained in order to avoid negative effects on the teeth, gums,and body." I'm no English teacher, but this is formatted like the examples on the website.

Let me see what I can do about an introductory paragraph.

Well you need to state what it is you are going to talk about in your paper and make 2 or 3 points for and 2 or 3 points against.
Like youmight say.
Oral hygiene is very important for your health, your whole body including your teeth can be improved by good hygiene or destroyed by bad oral hygiene and these are the 8 reasons why.
The first 4 reasons to make sure you give your mouth the best hygiene possible are; 1. keeping your teeth for a lifetime. 2. Avoiding costly and painful surgeries and the loss of your teeth. 3. Keeping your appearance looking your best throughout your whole life. 4. Keeping your mouth and gums healthy , will help keep your body's immune system up and running well.
Then you give the 4 bad health issues in sentences and write the body of your paper on all the pros and cons and then conclude your point of view at the end and the conclusion of any studies or quotes from professionals from the dental field check your english book or online sight for writing essays and writing thesis staement, my first example is a thesis statement the second part is the beginning of the paragragh of what I intend to explain in the body, and then your conclusion and statement if you proved your thesis statement or not..............hope that helps....melissa

A thesis is a point you're trying to argue. In this case, you might be trying to argue that poor oral hygeine has bad effects on your teeth, gums, and body. That's the thesis, and it can be your first sentence in your paragraph. For a second sentence, list three things that could be poor oral hygiene - not brushing your teeth after meals, not seeing a dentist twice a year, and something else. Third sentence, list three things that could happen if you have poor oral hygeine - you get cavities, and two other things.

There you go!

one opposing point would be that for hundreds of years humans survived without brush their teeth and taking care of their mouths. oral hygiene started in the 1900's.

And it's going to be hard to help with a thesis statement and into paragraph when we don't know that the rest of the paper is going to have in it...

the intro sums up the paper.. and we don't know whats in it.

those are no longer inevitably separate subjects. the main subject count is why you like to be a dental assistant. The helping factors are those you have listed. as an occasion, the intro could be a quick paragraph approximately why you individually prefer to be an assistant. the 2nd paragraph ought to describe the characteristics of a guy or woman in that field. To tie it decrease back to the intro, you should remark on why that appeals to you etc. Do the comparable with each and every. Does that make experience? good success.
