The days are getting shorter and the temperature is getting cooler and that means time for the annual Snowsuit Campaign to get underway. Rockland Family Centre, in partnership with Prescott-Russell Group Action for Child- ren, Families and Community, launches its 16th annual Snowsuit Campaign with the goal of making sure that children of families in need have a warm snowsuit so they can play outside during the winter. Applications for snowsuits are now being taken by phone at 613-446-4220 or at the Group Action website at www.groupeaction. ca and parents are advised to phone in requests before October 29 as the first day PGEJTUSJCVUJPOPGTOPXVJUTJT/PWFNCFS All applicants will receive instructions on where to pick up the snowsuits and Family Centre staff and volunteers will make sure that public health safety guidelines are followed for delivery and distribution of snowsuits. Fundraising is also in progress to support the annual Snowsuit Campaign. The Broad- way Restaurant will serve as the host site GPSUIF/PWFNCFSGVOESBJTFSCSFBLGBTU on a first-come first-served basis, 7 a.m. to noon. Donations by Interac are also accepted online at the Group Action website at www. groupeaction.ca.
Interesting fact: elephant dentition is unique! Inmost animals, including human beings, teeth grow from the top and bottom of the mouth. However, an elephant’s teeth are developed from the back and then push forward instead of growing vertically. Another noteworthy fact is that they have six sets of molars in their entire lifetime. As these teeth wear out from persistent grinding, another pushes forward to replace it and so on, and so on, until the elephant’s last set of teeth erupt at 30 years of age. As the final molars begin to break down, it becomes increasingly difficult for these large mammals to chew and digest food, often leading them to die of starvation or malnutrition. Older elephants sometimes migrate to marshes where they have softer plant foods to eat. That being said, we may not treat elephants in my clinic (wouldn’t that be something?), but I do see a remarkable correlation to losing human teeth. I meet patients ages 30 to 40 who lose their teeth partially or completely either from grinding teeth, cavities, or gum disease. In other cases, this partial or complete tooth loss is due tomore difficult situations such as drug abuse and drug therapy. Because losing your natural dentition tends to decrease your ability to chew food tenfold, we will often meet patients who are developing gastrointestinal problems like gastric reflux, bloating, and generalized abdominal pain. These types of situations affect the entire body by decreasing the overall quality of nutrition. Luckily, we are not elephants! We have plenty of excellent solutions available to us so that we can maintain our ability to chew our food as well as we would with our natural teeth! Whereas the poor elephant doesn’t have much choice. Nicholas Fournier, DD
