Children Have More .
Sense About Dentists
Than Their Parents
By DELOS SMITH
United Pres Science Edilor
New York (U.R) Dentists
have made a discovery which
rniiiH revolutionize society and
their own Dositiorf in it.
Children, if given the chance
and left alone, have more sense
about dentists and dentistry
than their tiarents do.
This is for the information of
parents as the time of year ap

of dealing with them. Those who
have won't need to bc driven.
They're more likely to be driv
ing their parents. '
A whole generation of chil
dren free of dental fears is grow
ing up here where the method
has been pioneered, and the pro
fession points with pride to one
heartening sign of change. New
York University's College of
Dentistry annually admits 150
freshmen. But applications now
are exceeding 1500 every year.
The Rational Approach
Dr. Harold Kane Addelston,
associate professor of pedodon
tics, which is dentistry for chil
dren, describes the modern
method as "the rational ap
proach." It is replacing the
"gadget era" when dentists used
teddy bears, electric trains, card
tricks, and whatever occurred to
them to distract children from
dentistry.
Now dentists give dentistry to
the kids straight. Dr. Addelston
summarized the fundamentals in
three words, "Tell, show, do."
First, the child is told what is
going to be done. He is shown
how it is going to be done. And
then it is done, precisely as de
scribed. Children Fear Unknown
"The educational basis for
this is that children fear the un
known," he said. "This is com
pounded by the misinformation
they pick up from adults whose
exaggerated stories are enough
to instill fear into the hearts of
grown men and women to say
nothing of the devastating effect
that they have on little children.
"Dentists prefer to do more
dentistry for children and thus
avoid more dentistry for adults,
particularly drastic dentistry,
tion rather than the dentistry of
careful examination and preven
tion rather than the entistry of
extractions and dentures." -
