TEETH OF SCHOOL CHILDREN
DIR. c. f. Crouch Offers to Conduct
Free Clinics in Public Schools
of City and County.

of City and County.
Dental surgery has advanced apace
with all the sciences of medicine,
and the day has come in the history
of the world when gold filling or a
gold crown or bridge in the mouth
of a patient will be a sign to all
men that neither the state nor the
parent has yet learned the lesson
OF dental hygiene. 4
Medical science has prevented and
relieved the young of bunch backs,
club feet, knock knees, but we have
Just begun to awake to the necessity
OF the prevention of decayed and de-
formed teeth of the young child.
During the time of youth, when
the permanent set is beginning to
grow and put forth, the child is
usually neglectful, and the parent
dlsregards the usual safety of pre-
serving the young and tender tooth.
1t comes forth into the mouth full
OF bacilli and acids which attack
the tender tooth, and ere the child
or parent is aware the otherwise
beautiful tooth is destroyed, the
health of the child sapped, and be-
fore the child has arrived ct maturity
the teeth are practically destroyed.
Keep the mouth of the child clean
by constant brushing, and usually
the teeth will take care of them
selves.
But the attention of the child
must be constantly called to the dan
ger of neglecting the mouth and
teeth.
This cannot be done too often or
too pointedly, The parent, the state
and the dentist should all be called
into service.
In recognition of these facts the
school trustees all over the United
States have and are establishing in
the various schools free clinics
among the pupils, which call at
tention to the fact that the welfare
and interest of the child is receiv-
ing the best thought and best atten-
ton of mankind
Recently the dentists of Atlanta.
Savannah and Macon have agreed
to conduct these free clinics at the
public schools.
Why should not the children of the
public schools of Dawson receive the
same thought and care?
DR.. Chas. F. Crouch, seeing the
necessity and in order that the chill
dren OF Dawson may not be neglected
IN so important a matter, offers his
services free, and will perform such
duties as may be prescribed by the
board of education at the public
school in Dawson.
He will lecture on dental hygiene
and examine the teeth, make written
| reports from time to time, and per-
form such other duties as may be
prescribed, all absolutely free to the
child and parent.
He further proposes to visit any
country school in Terrell county,
upon the invitation of the trustees.
and lecture or examine the teeth of
the children.
At the next regular meeting of the
board of education of the Dawson
Public Schools the matter will be
taken up, and all citizens and dent
lists of the city are cordially invited
to be present.
