County Health Unit's newest
service.
µ.Dr. G. P. A. Evans, medical
officer of health for Huron, said
program approved for elementary schools
his department has been unable
to secure the services of a public
health dentist and a dental
hygienist this year.
"We certainly want to have
the whole cake," Dr. Evans
explained, "but we will have to
be satisfied with a bit of the
cake to start off with."
This initial program, to begin
this year, will entail painting the
teeth of young school children
with a special fluoride paste. Dr.
Evans said this program can be
administered by .registered
nurses and although all public

health nurses are qualified to
undertake the work, it is
expected that an additional staff
member will have to be engaged:
It will -most likely be the
children in Grades 1 to 4 who
vpill first participate'. in this
program."
Dr, Evans said it would- be
ideal to work with kindergarten
children but added that since
"co-operation, and adequate
co-operation" is necessary to
success it has been decided to
begin with students in Grade 1.
It is understood the children
will apply the special paste
themselves under the direct
supervision of the nurse in
charge.
"They think it is great fun,"
advised Dr. Evans. He said that
while he hasn't actually tasted
the special paste it "smells like
fruit drops" and is supposed' to
have "a very agreeable taste."
At the same time as the
children are applying the special
paste t their own teeth, the
nurse ves the youngsters
.instructio on the best way to
brush their teeth, pr"oper diet,
etc. Each child receives a new
toothbrush in the bargain. ,
°The procedure should be
repeated at least once a year,
although some authorities
believe it should be done twice a
year. -
"The frequency has not been
fully worked out," noted Dr;
Evans.
In areas like Goderich where
Fluoride is taken everyday
through the drinking water, the
teeth painting will still take
Place as an extra measure of
precaution.
"In addition, they could use a
fluoride toothpaste," concluded
Dr: Evans.
