171) BRAZIL: Oral Health in Schools

Dourados - The School of the Golden Sesi successfully held the "First Week: To be Beautiful Teeth - toothpaste and brush." During this week, students of early childhood education and elementary school started its activities with brushing, dental evaluation and application of fluoride, reading the text information about brushing teeth, among other activities.
In addition to the information provided by the teacher in the classroom, the school had the support of guidance, application of fluoride and dental evaluation of the dentist Sesi, Emanuelle Campos de Menezes.

Do not understand the reason why this example is not followed in all schools in Portugal, member of the European Union. Nor is understood that there is no disclosure of the Oral Health Program to all children and adolescents to attend the schools of primary and secondary education, no information, of course the program does not work correctly and never come out of who.
Is awaiting urgent explanations for this unfortunate situation by the Ministries of Education and Health.
