Read the scenario very carefully and determine what is being disclosed and what type of program is being implemented. Read each question and each response slowly and carefully and determine the best possible answer. A dental hygienist who works in private practice also volunteers weekly in an elementary school sealant program that is funded for 3 years and conducted by the regional health department in a nearby community of migrant farm workers. The community water supply is not fluoridated and the children have a high rate of tooth decay. An oral health screening is conducted prior to sealing the children’s teeth and a caries index is recorded for each child on the basis of a visual examination of teeth. Children identified as needing dental treatment as a result of assessment throughout the program are referred to a local dentist. The total number of sealants placed during the 3 year funding cycle is used to evaluate the success of the program. 27). The SES and the rate of tooth decay make this community appropriate to target for this program. The expected distribution of the DMF in this population would be more D than F scores. A) Both statements are true B) Both statements are false C) The first statement is true, and the second statement is false D) The first statement is false, and the second statement is true 28). What is the optimal level of fluoride in the drinking water for this population? A) 0.7 ppm B) 3.0 ppm C) 0.7 to 1.0 ppm D) 1.2 ppm 29). What additional program would be the MOST cost effective fluoride delivery system for the community where the hygienist volunteers? A) Fluoride supplements B) Community Water Fluoridation C) School fluoride mouth rinse program D) No additional fluoride program is required 30) Which of the following index is MOST appropriate for the assessment of this program? A) dmft/dmfs B) Plaque index C) Gingival Bleeding index D) Plaque free score
