he Cottage Grove Rotary Club
recently donated over 200 dic-
tionaries to the third-graders in South

say the kids were excited to receive the
dictionary for their very own to keep.
Rotarians gave some instruction on
how to use the dictionary as well.
On Thursday, Rotary members and
guests also heard from eight gradu-
ates of Rotary sponsored Rotary Youth
Leadership Awards (RYLA), a Rotary
sponsored youth education leadership
academy which was founded in Aus-
tralia in 1959. These eight students
graduated from the camp held at Grove
Christian Camp on the Row River in
Dorena.

Who’s the top-grossing ac tor in kids’ tooth decay stories? Sugar.
And in Fe bruary 2016, during National Children’s Dental Health
Month, the American Dental As sociation is bringing “Sugar
Wars” * to a dentist’s offi ce near you.
Your child’s dental hygiene isn’t only about brushing and fl oss-
ing. The best way to prevent tooth decay and the costly dental
cavities that result is to tackle the problem where it starts: eating
sugary foods.
Everyone likes a treat now and then, but when you and your kids do
indulge, it’s extra important to remember a couple of things.
Brightening Lives One Smile at a Time
• Don’t eat candies or sugary foods through out the day; the bacteria
that cause decay feed on sugar, so it’s important to give your
mouth a break.
• Brush your teeth with a dentist-recommended toothpaste after
you’ve eaten a sugary snack or dessert. This does two things: it
re mo ves any stuck food particles from the teeth and gums, and
it helps the saliva return to a normal pH level that doesn’t favor
tooth decay.
Generally, it’s best to avoid eating sugary foods every day for your
dental health and overall health. Opt for desserts that feature fresh
or frozen fruits, nuts and low-sugar recipes. At snack time, choose
fresh fruit or vegetables, nuts, cheese, whole-grain pro ducts or other
low-sugar foods that don’t easily get stuck in the teeth. Plan an
attack on sugary sodas, fruit drinks pastries and candies.

Teaching your kids good dental habits is the best way to fi ght
the Sugar Wars. Remind them to brush at least twice a day (once
before going to bed), rinse after snacking, fl oss daily and choose
low-sugar snacks.
