SUNDAY, OCTOBER 28: DENTAL HYGIENE
Profile America — Sunday, October 28th. The focus this month is definitely on taking care of your teeth. For one thing, October is Dental Hygiene Month — stressing preventative oral health care, from using dental floss to proper brushing techniques. And earlier this month in San Francisco, some 50,000 dentists gathered for the 153rd annual session of the American Dental Association. They took continuing education courses and viewed leading-edge dental technology and products. Helping us care for our teeth are 175,000 dentists and 141,000 dental hygienists, working in more than 99,000 offices across the country. You can find more facts about America from the U.S. Census Bureau, online at www.census.gov.
