Give your gums a good massage Q. How should I massage my gums? Is there choice of methods? A. Yes, there is. The first choice: brushing your teeth and gums properly with a soft toothbrush. There are also effective and readily available commercial products which massage the gums as they clean between teeth and the gum line: These are: 1) . The Prox-A-Brush, a narrow brush that fits between the teeth. 2) . Use of the rubber tip on the toothbrush handle, which is there expressly to massage gums between teeth at the cheek side and tongue side. 3) . Stim-U-Dent, a gentle and softorangewood interdental stimulator. 4) . The Water-Pick, an irrigating device with its pulsating stream of water. To learn which of these is best for your mouth, consult your dentist.

Castleton and CCI help area kids Hundreds of children will be able to go back to school with the school supplies they need as part of a partnership between the Community Centers of Indianapolis, Castleton Square Mall and WZPL Radio. The Castleton Square Mall Learning Tree program kicked off recently when the Learning Tree was unveiled at the Castleton Square Mall Customer Service Center located in center court. Through Aug. 24, tfye tree will display hundreds of bright red apple cut-outs bearing the names of kids who need school supplies. Children from the Community Centers of Indianapolis have signed each apple with three school supplies they need. Anyone who wishes to participate in The Learning Tree Program should stop by Castleton Square Mall and pick up an apple from die tree. The supplies listed on the child’s apple should be returned to die mall’s Customer Service Center by Aug. 24 so CCI has time to deliver the donations in time for the first day of school.
