USA - Fluoridation Mandated Kentucky has staggering tooth decay rates
Al Smith: 'Smiling Schools' improving health
A new pilot program called Smiling Schools will provide preventive oral health services for 25,000 children in Appalachian Kentucky. The children will receive protective tooth varnish in a program funded through a $1 million grant from the Appalachian Regional Commission and $250,000 from the state General Fund. A child with a toothache, and there are thousands of them, is too distracted to learn, says Jane Beshear. The failure to master class lessons in early years is the beginning of failure to keep up in the work force in later life, she added.
Fluoridation Mandated Kentucky has staggering tooth decay rates. It’s clear they need dental care and not fluoride. But what’s solution – more fluoride – making more money for companies selling the fluoride varnish and more money to the dental professionals applying the stuff, having no evidence that children are fluoride-deficient.
