D uring the course of his presen feeding of your baby (especially a t nap or bedtim e) after the age o f 12 m onths greatly increases the risk of very early dental decay. ♦An “ innocent gum boil’’ is not innocent at all. In children, nearly every gum boil is the result of an abscessed, dead to o th . W hile the pus bubble appears to come and go it will never heal. Delay in treatm ent increases risk of dam age to the perm anent to o th below. ♦Children should first visit a dentist by age two and a half (eyen earlier if you suspect a problem or have questions). Fifty percent of tw o years olds have a t least one cavity. Delaying treatm ent is unwise. ♦Children are not born with a fear of the dentist and with; appropriate dental experiences can grow up w ithout th at fear. ♦T he tw o m ost im p o rta n t factors in preventing cavities are; a) daily cleaning of the teeth (with parent assistance until age ten) and b) a well balanced dief with limited sugar consum p tion (especially shacks). ♦The average Am erican con sumes 125 pounds of sugar per year, i.e. a little m ore th an a teaspoonful of sugar every 35 minutes-24 hours a dayt ♦ Popcorn is an ideal snack item from a dental viewpoint. ♦T ooth enamel is m ost sus ■ ceptible to decay when the to o th first comes in and therefore any permanent six-year molars ■RI MBB! have decay by age seven.

The “O ther” category included incidents reported to the Police D epartm ent which are either unfounded, or over with prior to arrival o f the responding officer. Som e examples of such incidents might include prowlers who have fled the area prior to officer’s arrival, fights which are over and from which the p articip a n ts have disbanded, d runk drivers who could not be located, or assists to other agen cies.
