USA - Soothing tooth pain

The fluoridated water systems for this county are:

Gainesboro
Jackson County Utility District #1
Jackson County Utility District #2
Jackson County Utility District #3
Last year, about 650 kids statewide were hospitalized needing acute dental care last year, said Grant Christensen, staff dentist with the Wyoming Department of Health.

In kids up to 4 years old, tooth decay and cavities can occur. Not only does it cause pain for the child, it also is potentially deadly. Cavities left to fester breed bacteria that, if left untreated, can enter the bloodstream and become septic. Every year, kids die from this, Christensen said.
