Dr. DaaaW M. Gallie Declarea Pnnatite · Oal~ . SahatioD ia Tlaia Da~ M--. Diseased teeth in a diseased and unclean· mouth are the most prolific cause of disease, Dr. Donald M. Callie of Wilmette, head of the department of Operative Dentistry of the University of Illinois College of Dentistry in Chicago, declared this week.. "Much is written about · personal hygiene and body cleanliness," he said, "but with diseased teeth in one's mouth these aids to health are almost useless because the teeth undo aU of the good that cleanliness and personal hygiene gain." "Great interest is being manifested by officials and the publit: in efforts to stamp out disease and improve public health," he pointed out. "The federal government, state governments and municipal boards of health are passing laws and supervising better sanitary measures. Every municipality is strivThe ing for a pure water supply. manufacturin~ of adulterated and unwholesome foods and beverages is barred. Crowded tenements are regulated. Great attention is given to the disosal of garbage and sewage. People ·afflicted with infectious and contagious disease are isolated. Gateway Muat be Clean "But no matter how pure the water may be, how wholesome the food and "(lure the air, they cannot enter the system pure and wholesome if they have to pass through a diseased, unclean gateway," Dr. Callie asserted. "Decay of the teeth is the most common of all diseases that flesh · is heir to, and it is a disease increasing with the advance of civilization. Primitiv~ people were little troubled with decayed teeth. Some, namely the Esquimo and Maiori, were practically free from it. Today the prevalence of decayed teeth is appalling. The school children of the advanced nations of the world show about ninety per cent have diseased teeth and unhealthy mouths. . Uraea Vi,U..ce "Children's mouths must be kept The toothless little infant clean. should have attention and when deciduous or baby teeth have all been cut, they should be vigilantly watched. About this age children become imitative and readily learn to use the ·tooth brush. Once or twice a year they should be taken to a dentist for examination and reparative work if any cavities have developed. The baby teeth must not be neglected. They must be retained in the jaw until she<l by nature. Remember this, before the baby teeth are shed there appears :n the jaws just back of the last baby teeth, four permanent teeth, first molars (two above and two below). These are also known as the six year molars, because they appear about that age. Too often because they are considered baby teeth they are neglected and decay beyond saving. This is a tragedy, as the first permanent molars are the most important teeth in the whole mouth. p....._tioa Oal7 Hope '"The dentist has become a very skilled operator in the reparative field, but in spite of his skill we are falling hopel~ssly behind in combating the ravages of decay. We realize tfia we cannot , cope with the · disease by reparative·· measures. oUr oilly hope lies in prevention and today every conscientious dentist is directing : aU of his thoughts and energy ·to this en,d. 'The, dentist looks to the public and parochtal schools for assistance. We hope the time is not far distant when eyery child will have mouth examinatiOn and tooth brush drill in the primar~ .grade~, and further that some pr9v1ston wtll be made for a school clinic where the teeth of the children can be cared for." Upon the recommendation of Ttustee Hans Von Reinsperg, chairman of the public service eommittee, the Village board passed at its meeting Tues- co~nty. day evening of last week a resolution ·:.-o..---.;..;._..._.._......_......_...._........_-......;.... calling for the preparation of an ordinance by Villa,re Attorney Charles E. Jackson, establishing rules and regulations for the erection and operation of cleaning and dyeing establishments in the Village. The ordinance will probably be presented to the board at its next meeting. "My Children Enjoy ~iving tn Deere Park Because they are developing strong bodies, tanned, and with a glow of health. They are playing unrestrainedly, filling their longs with pore air, swelling their chests, and learning to laugh at a fall. They are swimming in. clean waters, and basking in the warm · sunl~ght. · With their dog, and with their chosen ·playmates, they are teaming courage, unselfishness and good fe ~lowship. They enjoy Deere Park now. Some day they will thank me for having made it po5sible for them to live there." · A Deere Park ·Reaident. BAIRDl[WARNER DIVISION OF COMMUNITY DBVJ!LOPM~NT 646 N.
