		<description>The problem is that dentists neglect children the rest of the 364 days of the year.

over 80% of dentists refuse Medicaid patients and 130 million Americans lack dental insurance.  Untreated tooth decay is a growing US problem.  US children  have died from the consequences of untreated tooth decay.

Yes, dentists can&#039;t treat people for free all the time. But organized dentistry blocks any other viable groups from  taking care of the people who dentists won&#039;t - keeping dental care unavailable to too many Americans and keeping dentistry a very lucrative monopoly

Meanwhile dentists choose to treat water supplies instead of low-income people. But science shows that fluoridation has failed to reduce tooth decay and exposes people unnecessarily to fluoride&#039;s adverse effects  See http://www.FluorideAction.Net/health

We need to stop fluoridation and use the millions of dollars saved to actually treat dentist neglected children.

Give Kids A Smile Day is just another PR stunt to make even more money for  dentists and the corporations that benefit from tooth decay.</description>
