This is important because oral problems can impact self-esteem for children and lead to problems of eating, speaking and attending to learning, said Michael McGuire, president of the AAP.
Common dental problems seen in children are cavities (龋洞) and gingivitis (龈牙), which are found in the majority of U.S. children. When these problems are not caught early and treated, they can develop into more severe problems and cause unnecessary suffering, said McGuire However, much of the time, oral problems are avoidable problems.
In the Rio Grande Valley in Texas, a group of more than 120 dentists volunteers to deliver dental care to thousands of low-income children each year with its Mobile Dental Unit that travels from school to school.
According to the Surgeon Generals Report, about 37 percent of children have not had a dental visit before starting school, said McGuire. When children dont see dentists they miss the opportunity to have problems caught early before they develop into larger, more expensive problems to treat, and parents miss the opportunity to learn how to promote good oral habits in their children.
