Local Dentists Say:
March Is Designated
Childrens' Denistry Month
Editor's Note: March is Na-
tional Children's Dental Health
Month. The following article was
submitted by Mrs Daniel W. Nun-
ley regarding the observation of
dental health month.
Over forty years of progress in
dentistry has resulted in dramatic
improvements in the oral health of
Americans and enormous savings
on dental health care costs accord-
ing to the Greenbrier Valley Dental
Society. Scientific breakthroughs,
improved dental equipment and
techniques, and increased cŁn-
sumer information efforts are re-
sponsible for these benefits. Follow-
ing are among the innovations
which have marked the past four
decades and some directions for the
future, provided by the American
Dental Association.
Fluoride is considered to be the
single most effective weapon
against tooth decay. In 1948, the
mineral was proved to prevent cavi-
ties by strengthening tooth enamel.
Now it is available in toothpastes,
mouth rinses, tablets, topical appli-
cations and fluoridated water sup-
plies. Today, about 60 per cent of
Americans drink fluoridated water
and half of school-age children have
never had a cavity. Currently, scien-
tists are researching a time-release
fluoride pellet which would bond to a
tooth and allow continuous absorp-
tion of fluoride over six months.
-- similar to vaccines against
measles, mumps, and polio.
Sealants are additional preven-
tive measures that were created in
the early 1970s and are strongly
recommended by the American
Dental Association (ADA)• Sealants
are plastic coatings applied to the
tooth's chewing surfaces to fill
microscopic pits and fissures in
children's developing permanent
molars. Recently, sealants have
been combined with time-release
fluoride to strengthen tooth enamel
and remineralize areas which show
early signs of decay.
High Speea Orms nave been im-
portant innovations in dentistry, and
when coupled with fast-acting anes-
thetics, have removed the pain, and
accompanying fear, of a trip to the
dentist. In 1950, ball-bearing hand-
pieces reached speeds up to 50,000
revolutions per minute (r.p.m.). Then
air-driven turbine drills were intro-
duced in 1957 which reached
300,000 r.p.m. Today's drills make
quick work of decay, reaching
speeds of 800,000 r.p.m. There are
also chemical compounds which can
dissolve small areas of decay now in
use in a few dental offices. Lasers
may replace drills in the future. Ex-
perimentally, concentrated laser
beams are being used to eradicate
decay, smooth pits and fissures,
and clean root canals.
