Risks and Benefits of Fluoride Joy Bonspille-Bushey Com/155 January 15, 2012 Katherine Parr Risks and Benefits of Fluoride Fluoride: The History The year was 1901 when Frederick McKay first came to Colorado Springs. He noticed the mottled appearance of the local’s teeth, but also the decreased evidence of dental caries (tooth decay.) (1) Several years later, this prompted Trendley Dean to do research on this anomaly, and he found fluoride in the water supplies to be responsible for this. His earliest studies focused on how much fluoride could be ingested without causing the brown-stained appearance on teeth. Eventually in 1936 Dean and his staff reported that 1.0 part per million (ppm) in drinking water would not cause dental fluorosis, or mottling.
Use a new glucose strip and record Data: Conclusion: According to my data, pH levels do, in fact, affect the results of Lactex. I say this because in my experiment, pre-enzyme, my solutions were all negative except for the soda. I used the test strips to determine if they were negative or positive solutions. After I put in the enzyme, Lactex, my results changed. Vinegar, Antacid, and Soap all became positive solutions after I put in the enzyme.
(http://water.epa.gov/lawsregs/lawsguidance/cwa/tmdl/glossary.cfm#section303d) Water quality research is very important to our society. This will help us protect our nations water systems, help us achieve a total maximum daily load of waste allocations on pollution. This will help sustain the ecological processes to support vegetation, fish populations, birdlife and our wetlands. (http://water.epa.gov/scitech/swguidance/standards/imp.cfm) The reason why this experiment is being done is to test my water system, and to determine the quality for life. The more we know about our water the better off we will be.
Sodium Fluoride in Drinking Water? With the amount of toxins in our lakes and oceans, it is only natural that we somehow purify the chemicals in our sources of water so that we can have the alternative way to not suffer from dehydration. Water is a fundamental part of our lives; in fact the average adult body is 55-75% water. Aside from all this water regulates body temperature and blood circulation, carries nutrients and oxygen to cells. Dr. Fereydoon Batmanghelidj made it clear that chronic dehydration could cause certain problems for the body, including hypertension, asthma, allergies, and migraine headaches.
Colonic (Tom Colonic): Fact c. Colonic is short for 'colonic irrigation' and is basically a flushing of the lower bowel by introducing water. This matches up with the video because he was running for mayor on a campaign of cleaning up the rot and stagnation in the bowels and wanted to add fiber to Frank’s diet. 4. Placebo: Fact d. A placebo is a simulated or otherwise medically ineffectual treatment for a disease or other medical condition intended to deceive the recipient. Sometimes patients given a placebo treatment will have a perceived or actual improvement in a medical condition, a phenomenon commonly called the placebo effect.
In 1840, he became the first professor and Chairman of Special pathology and Therapeutics, with the opening of the first dental school in the world, The Baltimore College of Dental Surgery. He was the chairman for at least 30 years. Mr. Bond was one of the most influential men of the nineteenth century dental profession. He was considered one of the Americans of the dental profession to “birth’ modern dentistry.
Communication and Crisis Sherean Hollandsworth HCS 320 September 30, 2013 Debbie Hunt Communication and Crisis In this scenario, I am the director of the regional Emergency Management Office. I am going to make sure that I get a team together that will communicate outside and inside the organization during this crisis situation. I will explain the possible challenges and advantages connected with communicating with the organization, the public, and the private sectors about the water contamination. I will also explain the differences in the communication processes used in this situation. The team and I will make sure that the appropriate technology would be used.
Lead has been a component in the making of pipes, solder, and flux used for residential tap water. Health effects such as developmental delays and attention deficits in children, and kidney problems and highblood pressure in adults have resulted in the need for a lead ban. The Lead Ban Act was enacted in an effort to strengthen the provisions of the PA Safe Drinking Water Act in order to remain consistent with the Federal Safe Drinking Water Act Amendments of 1986. The Lead Ban Act helps to safeguard our public drinking water systems from harmful levels of lead. The Lead Ban Act was signed into law on July 6, 1989, and went into effect on January 6, 1991.
HISTORY The development of dentistry during the 19th century in combination with the germ theory of disease had a direct effect on the practice of dentistry. Irrigation in 19th century Literature from this period mostly contained numerous empirically based recommendations for a variety of rinsing agents and medicaments, such as pulp extirpation under a pool of oil of eucalyptus and cloves was advocated, the rationale being that these oils would penetrate the canal as the nerve was removed. Arsenic was introduced by Shearjashub Spooner et al (1836)4 to destroy the nerves of the teeth without causing pain. However, some cases of fatal consequences were reported due to the use of Arsenic and daily dressing with thorough canal irrigation was
