Who needs teeth anyways

      As for some of you may not know, but I am a RDA (Registered Dental Assistant) at a pediatric dental office in cool springs. I love my job and I absolute love working with kids. What I love most about kids is how honest they are and they do not even mean to be. So it breaks my heart when kids come into the dental office and have to have so much work done on their teeth, because their parents don't make them brush them or take proper care of their teeth till about the age of 8 years.
     The other part I love about my job is I just love teeth in general I think everyone should have a bright white smile and straight teeth one of the first things you look at on someone is their teeth and smile and I like that I get to help children at a young age learn how important it is to take care of your teeth because once a tooth get so large of a cavity its gone there nothing you can do to get that tooth back.
    So my modest proposal shall be free dental care for children until the age of 8 years. Because this is when most of their permanent  teeth shall have erupted and they have full function motor skills at this age of for most children.
