Dental Hints . Brought To The Community By Spurgeon W. Webber Jr.. D.D.S Dental Discomfort Probably the first experience a person has with dental discomfort is one which cannot be remem bered - teething. Although the child does not remember the experience, most parents do. Teething is part of a baby’s normal development, and the first tooth is usually cut within the first four to eight months of life. The lower front teeth are often the first to be seen, and mild discomfort usually accompanies the teething process. Parents should recognize the signs of teething so that they are not overly concerned by the changes occurring in the baby’s mouth. Often, a harmless, purple-colored, blister-like bag covers the molars that are about to be cut. At teething time, a baby may experience swollen gums or a stomach ache, and may refuse to eat. These are the most common symptoms of teething and should not be of major concern to parents. However, if the child experiences crying, nausea, vomitting, diarrhea, or headrolling, it is probably due to some other physical disorder and a physican should be consulted. If a parent wishes to reduce the mild discomfort associated with teething, there are several home remedies that may be helpful. For example, giving the child an ice cube wrapped in a wash cloth to suck . on may ease some of the discomfort. Over-the-counter drugs are also available at pharmacies which may relieve some discomfort. Because the formation years are important in the child’s development, parents should always be aware of changes in the baby’s mouth. It is widely known that the happenings in the first years of life affect a person in later years. This includes dental health.

Singer Phyllis Hyman, who made her theatrical debut here in the Broadway hit musical “Sophis ticated Ladies,” completed her first television special in Miami, Fla., on WTVJ, a CBS affiliate. It is being considered for cable televi sion, according to a spokesperson for a Los Angeles publication. “It was being taped and will be sold to cable television,” said pu blicist Greg Harris of Orchid Pu blication in Los Angeles, Calif. Hyman’s special received such an excellent response from the Miami audience that it convinced producer Gregg Simpson, who won two Emmy Awards for his feature documentary “To the Point,” to market the show for cable televi sion, Harris said. The special, entitled “Phyllis Hyman...A Sophisticated Lady,” the hour-long college of music, comedy and fan, feature was broadcast at 9 p.m. in Miami, last . Sunday (Aug. 9). Joining Phyllis as a special guest was singer Bobby Caldwell. The show was filmed on loca tions ranging from Times Square and Broadway in New York to the Women USA! The third in a series of “Women usA!’i programs looks at “The Job Market; A Woman’s’Perspect ive,” Monday, August 24, at 11 a m. on WBTV, Channel 3. Broadcast journalist Carole Wil son hosts the program, and her guests are Bella Abzug, former U.S. Congresswoman; Kate Rand Lloyd, Editor-in-Chief of “Working Women”; and Francesta Farmer of the Equal Employment Op portunity Commission. The program examines the sta tus of working women today, where they’re employed, how their salaries and opportunities com pare to men and the problems they face. Profiles of women in tradi tional and non-traditional jobs and job training programs are il lustrated. Subjects covered in clude; where and why American women work, what are marketable skills, employment agencies and how to use them, sex discrimin ation, affirmative action, and equal pay: fact or fiction?

The tunes Phyllis sang included many of her established hits, sich as “Betcha By Golly Wow,” “You Know How To Love Me,” “Children of the World,” and “Somewhere in My Lifetime.” Simpson- approached Phyllis with the idea of a special two years ago shortly after Phyllis had moved from Miami to New York. “I thought it was great, mainly because Gregg would be doing it,” Phyllis says “I’ve always had such a great respect for his work. He’s one of the truly imaginative and creative people in TV today. I aIs^Ug^toeide^niirin^Hirst in Miami, which is sort of my second home. That’s where I really perfected my craft before moving to New York. Filming for the show started in September in Miami, and then moved to more than eight loca tions. “It was a little while in the making, but I think it’s really a great show, though 1 must admit I’m a little biased," Simpson says. “Phyllis and I work very well together. It may have something to do with the fact that we were born only two weeks apart.” The special is expected to be released for cable viewers some time in the fall. / RON'S GROCERY v 3241 Drenan -MANAGER_ 332-4024 MANAGER Deborah Clawson Kenneth Clawson Ton y Johnson - P.R. —Specials This Week — Red & White Single 35 « Beer «.
