Service. re; The national program, under , Way sirice last year, is designed to help prevent dental decay in children. Such treatment is ap- \plied idea’ly at the apparance of each new tooth, or at the ages of 3, 7, 10 and 13. The benefits of oithe treatinent for adults are still being investigated. ‘The speaker stated that an al- é te method. of combatting de- ¢eay-would be to add a minute amount of sodium fluoride to the drinking water, a means now em- ‘ployed by various communities, with Gainesville the first city in .»Blor io do so. ~” “Pooth decay is the commonest disease of man,” Dr. Gray de- elared, pointing out that faulty diet is ofter. a cause of it. He sug- "gested substitution of fruits for ‘the refined sugar contained in ‘candy, soft drinks and ice cream i ah stressed the importance of blishing the habit of brush- ing teeth in young children. oanae sucking was deplored ‘as ‘permarently distorting the os of the mouth and thoat. By Dr. Herman H. Gray At Luncheon Meeting Held Yesterday The speaker advocated a change in the child's activity or putting mustard or pepper on the thumb. Another effective remedy, he said, is forcing the child to suck hisithumb in front of a mirror when he wants to be out play- ing. Dr. Gray stressed the impor- tance of saving the baby teeth as a means cf preserving the nor- mal shape of the mouth and as an aid in keeping detay away from the permanent teeth. Baby teeth are easy to fill and should be checked frequently by a den- tist, he declared, pointing out that dente! abscesses or gum boils act as foci of infection, to various physical ailments. Mrs. Nathalie Beshany . and Mrs. Alice Laughon were hos- tesses at the luncheon which pre- ceded Dr. Gray’s talk.
