FACTS:
Recently released figures from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention based on the most recent information available (2003-04) indicate that the percentage of Americans with untreated tooth decay began rising this decade, reversing nearly 50 years of improvement in dental health. The reversal seems to be directly related to access to dental care.
"For children between the ages of 5 and 17 in the U.S., tooth decay is more common than asthma, more common than hay fever, and it poses a significant threat to our children’s overall health and well-being,” said Marsha Butler, DDS, vice president, Global Oral Health and Professional Relations, Colgate.
The Former US Surgeon General, Dr. David Satcher in his healthy People 2000 report validated the findings that we had experienced in creating this program over 20 years ago, to overcome barriers to care and change cultural and social paradigms about the importance oral health education, prevention and providing access to care. By maintaining our Nellie's Kids in a comprehensive dental program that agressively manages their dental visits and followup, we have been able to have an impact children's oral health in West TN.
We recognize those that suffer the greatest disparities are at risk families and are minorities. Our program understands that real change starts with good communication, respect and opportunity. That is why we work closely with families, schools, daycares, churches and we seek partner with Colgate Palmolive in the Bright Smiles, Bright Futures program and the TENNCARE program.
