Dental phobia: How to help prevent it in a child

Dental phobia. Many adults developed it when they were young and never got rid of it. Unfortunately, patents can instill that same fear-of-the-dentist in their own children. The point is, there’s much that parents can do to create a positive, educational dental experience for their children. With the plethora of new preventive treatments, fluoride therapies and dental technology, today’s children? can look forward to a dental visit. Here are some guidelines to prevent dental phobia in children — and help eliminate it, for adults as well: 1. “Invisible teeth” require attention. Before the primary and permanent teeth erupt through the gums, they are in critical growth stages. Early fluoride treatment — via drinking fluoridated water, or taking multi-vitamins with fluoride — will strengthen the teeth and form dental enamel more resistant to decay as the teeth are developing. The American Dental Association endorsed fluoride 40 years ago as the safest, most effective way to combat tooth decay. Early use allows fluoride to become an integral part of the enamel and helps protect teeth throughout life. 2. Bring the child to the dentist early on. The biggest mistake a parent can make is to wait until the child’s first toothache to introduce him to the dentist. The child should be taken for his initial checkup at age two, when he’ll be able to interact with the dentist under non-threatening circumstances. And, even before the initial visit, parents must begin proper preventive tooth care at home. 3. Check the community water supply. Approximately 55 percent of the country now has access to fluoridated drinking water.

out if the drinking water is sufficiently fluoridated. It local water is not, ask the doctor or dentist to prescribe a fluoride supplement for the child. Most importantly, make sure that taking the supplement is a daily routine. Administering multi-vitamins that also contain fluoride is an easy way to ensure that the child gets fluoride every day. Breastfeeding mothers living in fluoridated communities should note that since fluoride is not transferred through breastmilk, they also need to give their infants fluoride supplements. 4. Don’t remind the child of the “old days.” Children take what adults say seriously, especially if it has to do with pain. Parents should avoid reminiscing about their first dental visit and don’t paint comical pictures of the “slammed door” method of pulling teeth, or a bandaged head nursing a toothache. Also, comments like, “Don’t eat that candy or you’ll have to go to the dentist,” or “It won’t hurt too much” only provide fear. Be positive. Parents should practice good oral hygiene themselves. They should encourage their children to brush after meals, make them responsible for taking their daily fluoride supplement, let them know that their dentist is their friend, and that, if cared for properly, healthy teeth can last a lifetime. » ' Jg NEW ADMINISTRATOR —A.

I By MARIETTA F. HENRY Extension Homemaker Sometimes ice and snow, can immobilize the state for several days and cut off electricity to homes during the winter months. Limited energy supplies also limit the amount of energy available for home consumption. The needs during emergencies will be different for various families. It is important to assure that enough food, medicines and othe’- critical supplies are on hand to last for one or more weeks in case you are housebound due to snow. Stockpiled foods should be selected as closely to family preferences as possible. If an infant, elderly or family member who has dietary problems is present, make certain that a two-week supply of food is stored for them. An infant needs specially prepared food or food that can easily be strained or chopped. Dry milk should be kept Meals for older Americans Meals for Older Americans are served each day at the following locations: The Scout Cabin, Syracuse; the Pierceton Community Building; Mentone Community Room in the fire station; the Retired Tigers Center, 320 W. Main, Warsaw; and Packerton Community Building. Meals for Older Americans is for persons 60 years or older and is a chance to meet new friends and enjoy hot, nutritional meals. The s|tes are opened several hours each day including noon for programs. Meals-4 or Older Americans is not associated with welfare but is for the promotion for better health for the older population. Donations are accepted for the meals. The site directors request all persons planning on attending the meals to make reservations by 1 p.m. the day prior to attending. Phone 457-2631 for Syracuse transportation and reservations.

ft at all times for the infant. Extra prescriptions needed by the infant should be kept. When available, choose cans and jars in sizes that will supply one meal for the family for items that deteriorate rapidly without refrigeration. Deviation from a good dietary pattern for a few days should cause no serious problems in well-nourished, healthy people. Food spoilage and contamination are the major concerns during emergencies when power is disrupted. Since emergencies are erratic, keep emergency food on hand at all times. However, to maintain the texture and nutritional value, food should be rotated. Use the food for regular meals and replace it with more recently purchased food. This food should go in the back of the storage unit and the older supply in the front. Date and label cans. All food should be used between six months and one year. It will still be safe after one year, but the texture and nutritional value of the food may be altered or reduced. Food should be stored in a cool, dry place at temperatures no higher than 70 degrees and no lowier than 40 degrees. Be careful to protect food in boxes from rodents and insects. Leave the food in their original containers and store boxes and all in a closed metal container. Canned food is generally safe to eat as long as the seal of the can is not broken. Do not use canned goods that bulge, leak or spurt liquid, or contain mold or off-odors when opened. Gas bubbles, cloudiness and a surface film usually indicate bacterial growth. During a power failure, cooking and eating habits must change to fit the situation. You may have no heat, no refrigeration and limited water. In addition, health risks from contaminated or spoiled food may increase. When preparing food during a power outage consider the amount of cooking time needed for particular foods. If you have limited heat for cooking, choose foods which «J3k quickly, such as one-dish meals or serve no-cook foods. Alternative Cooking Methods Examine alternative cooking methods. These include: Fireplaces — Many foods can be skewered, grilled or wrapped in foil and cooked in the fireplace. Corn, potatoes, squash and apples can be wrapped in heavy foil and cooked in the hot bed of coals. Be sure your fireplace has adequate ventilation when you burn anything in it. Candlewarmers — Candlewarmers and other devices, such as fondue pots, may

be used if no other heat source is available. Use safety precautions with these devices. Never use fuel burning camp stoves or char- » coal burners inside the home, even in a fireplace. Fumes from these stoves can be deadly. Camp stoves — These stoves should be used only outside the house as propane or butane fires are difficult to extinguish. There is little you can do to put out a propane or butane fire unless you turn off the gas. Learn where the shut-off valve is. A dry chemical extinguisher will put out gasoline or oil fires, but will not put out butane or propane. Outdoor cooking — That charcoal grill you may have used for picnics or barbecues can be very useful for cooking under emergency conditions. Do your charcoal cooking outside where there is plenty of ventilation and well away from flammable materials. In addition to the many types of meats you may have already cooked, charcoal is useful for foil cooking and one-pot meals cooked in pans on top of the grill. Charcoal should never be used as the fuel for any type of indoor fire without adequate ventilation. The carbon monoxide from the burning charcoal is very dangerous.

Do not cook frozen foods unless you have ample heat for cooking. Most frozen foods require considerably more cooking time and heat than canned foods. Also, if the power is off, it is best to leave the freezer door closed to keep food from thawing. Foods To Haye I Reserve Milk — Powdered non-fat dry milk, evaporated canned milk Canned — Canned meat, poultry, fish (tuna or salmon), cooked dry bepns and peas, condensed soups containing meat or dry beans, peanut butter, all types of canned fruits and vegetables, fruit juices. Other choices to keep on hand include: cereals and baked goods, including ready to eat and instant cereals; spread for bread and crackers; extra sugar and fats and vegetable oils; other miscellaneous items such as cos- ‘ fee, tea, cocoa, soda, baking powder aid flavorings. Year! Immigration Bill President Reagan, signing into law the most sweeping immigration reform in more than 30 years, expressed hope that the measure will preserve “one of the most sacred possessions pF our people — American citiztinship.”
