1. Dental Hygiene
The recent statistics published by the Government of India and the Indian Dental Association reveals that the most common dental affliction in children is Dental Caries. It is a studied fact that 70% of the oral and dental diseases can be prevented by dental health education and preventive care. In the present scenario Preventive Dentistry can play a significant and decisive role in promoting good dental hygiene. Preventive Dental Health Programme is a community based programme involving all the sections of people.
Concepts
The systematic and scientific awareness programme will lay the foundation of a healthy mouth in young children for life time ahead. A healthy mouth if maintained from infancy will develop healthy milieu for the permanent dentition to develop. This project introduces and implements the principles and concepts of prevention of dental diseases right from infancy through childhood and adolescence.
“Health through Knowledge”:
The programme is to be promoted by the involvement of the community at every stage of implementation by mass education programmes. Dentists and other health professionals involved in the project would impart knowledge on the preventive aspects of dental and oral hygiene at the grass root level. The information is then disseminated to the wider population by community participation. Kerala, the most literate state in the country is well known for highly successful community based programmes in health and education through mass movements. The success of this project can also thus be assured.

Dental care society

  • To achieve the objective of a “Carries Free Generation” we need to create a team of dental health workers, one per 1000 children. The preferred choice is a group of ladies with science background who are good communicators to spread the message.
  • The dental health worker should be trained to conduct surveys and prepare a database , to identify defective facial and dental development, and to provide guidance for early preventive programs and treatment.
  • The survey aims to build a database with dental status of children of age 0 to 10, classified into three age groups and to identify prevalence of dental carries among them. Continuous update of this database by the dental health workers will help to monitor and guide their activities.
  • The dental health workers will guide the target group to cultivate good habits of dental hygiene among children, early corrective and preventive treatment to keep up good facial appearance.
