CHICAGO, March 5 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Two recent child deaths related to toothaches signal a step backwards for the nation's health, according to Oral Health America.
"It's hard to fathom that in 2007 we are reading multiple news reports of children dying from toothaches," said Robert Klaus, President and CEO of the nation's premier, independent patient advocacy group for improved oral health. "In 2000, the U.S. Surgeon General issued a warning calling the state of oral health in America a silent epidemic. These tragic deaths will hopefully help end that silence."
