Dental Health Day
Observed In u. :.
Nations Dentists Seek
Public Education
On Dental Care

Monday, February 4, was Ma.
tional Children's Dental Health
Day. The observance by the ma
tons dentists in an effort to
bring improved dental health to
all children. The Advertiser, in
cooperation with the Mississippi
Dental Society, today begins a
series of authoritative articles on
dental health for children.
Baby's first tooth always is a
cause for joyful comment by the
proud parents.
But too few mothers and IA
theirs realize that even before
the initial cleaning tooth ap-
pears, their health responsible
ties to the child should include
concern for dental health.
There must be continuous
effort to maintain mouth health
for the child if he is to have
an adulthood free of dental ills.
And the time to begin is in early
childhood.
By the time a youngster is 2
and one-half years old he usu-
ally has all his first or primary
teeth 20 altogether. This
means that he now can chew
and eat almost anything. 1t also
means that he now has 20 more
parts to his growing body where
something can go wrong unless
he has proper care and is edu-
Gated in the proper health ha-
bits.
No one expects an automobile
with its thousands of parts in use
continuously not to become de-
fective unless it is serviced pro-
perly. The same is true with
many parts of the body - the
teeth particularly.
Teeth take an enormous am
cunt of punishment from improp-
er foods, from improper care and
from neglect. &
AS an indication of the scope
of the tooth decay problem, it
has been estimated that today in
the United States alone, boys
and girls between the ages of six
and l8 need more than $50 mil
lion Filings because of dental
decay.
Scientific research over the
years - and there have been
tremendous advances in dental
science - has given US the know
how to solve most of the prob

ways to pad the space between
the items and the walls Of the
