This is the AAC picture communication symbol for teeth hurt. It's a clear, child-friendly illustration designed to help a child point to, tap, or hand over a card to say "teeth hurt".
How to use the "teeth hurt" symbol in AAC
AAC (Augmentative and Alternative Communication) gives children who are minimally speaking a way to communicate using pictures instead of, or alongside, spoken words. Place the "teeth hurt" symbol on a communication board where your child can reach it, model tapping it while you say the word out loud, and celebrate every time they use it. Consistency matters more than perfection — the same symbol in the same place builds confidence.
