Reading, writing and brushing teeth

One thing most children have in common is attending public school. Why not include good dental hygiene as one of the things taught? They can also be given a ‘report card’ to keep track of when they brush at home before bed, similar to reading programs for kindergarten and Grade 1 children.

This is a better alternative than to force the entire city to have unwanted additives in their drinking water.
