The theme for the contest is "Let's GeCDental." Guy stated. "Parents of school age children in Duplin County are being saved many dollars and our children are being saved much pain by preventing dental decay." The schools have been involved in a dental health program which consists of weekly flouride mouth rinses and school water flouridation. The project began in 1975 under the direction of Grace Newton, public health dental hygienist. The school water flouridation is maintained by personnel from the N.C. Dental Health Section in Greenville, by the maintenance personnel of the school system under the direction of J.L. Rhodes, and by a specially selected person at each school. Since the ; ogram began, there has been a 38 percent reduction in " j ? ? ? _ xt : ?. denial caries, ine inspection rcpori in 1974-75 indicates 55 percent of the students inspected were referred to dentists. In 1982-83. only 22 percent of lhe students inspected needed referrals. ??'Teachers are trained to adminis ter; the flouridation. and do so one day' each week.

According to Dr. Bill Kelly, state chairman, 1984 Children's Dental Health Month committee, principals, have been asked to decide if their schools will participate in the con test. "Awards wil) be determined based on the number of points a school earns by completing activi ties during the weeks of Feb. 6-17," Dr. Kelly said. "Points will be awarded for activities such as having a dental display in the school library, holding a non-sweet snack day, conducting PTA programs related to dental health, etc." Dr. Kelly stated. "Classroom teachers may add to their school's point total by scheduling dental health activities such as swishing with flouride mouthrinse or asking a dentist to visit and talk to students." Principals may add points to overall scores by actively, partici pating. Superintenden'ts and administrators may also give a boost to the winnino schools' scores bv completing suggested activities. First prize for the winning schools (large and small school categdries) will be state trophies and cash awards of $500. District winners will receive cash awards and permanent plaques. The cash awards and trophies will be presented by the N.C. Dental Society and its local affiliates. "We're asking individual dentists and local dental societies to urge schools in their areas to participate and, whenever possible, offer their assistance with contest activities," Dr. Kelly said. "We want our young people to be constantly aware of the importance of good dental health care."
