By HANNAH JENNINGS PARRY

A DENTIST from Solihull, is offering special children's clinics after having to treat "lots" of local youngsters for fillings before they even have adult teeth.
Satinder and Joanna Kelley, owners of Dickens Heath surgery, Heath Dental, said childhood cavities were such an issue, they were now offering foaming fluoride treatment Flairesse, to help repair cavities in youngsters' pearly whites.
They also offer a dedicated child's clinic, with face painting, films and an education corner, as well as using the latest technology, to help reduce pain and fear.
"If we can teach them at a young age, they are more likely to keep good dental habits for life," said Satinder.
"It tends to be the older generations that have phobias......

The whole of Solihull is fluoridated.

Infant formula should not be routinely mixed with fluoridated water to avoid the risk of baby developing dental fluorosis (fluoride-discolored teeth)
Fluoridation Opposition is Scientific, Respectable & Growing
More than 4,293professionals (including 343 dentists and 538 MD’s) urge that fluoridation be stopped because fluoridation is ineffective and harmful. See statement: http://www.fluoridealert.org/researchers/professionals-statement/text/
In 2006, a National Research Council expert panel published a fluoride report which revealed that fluoride, even at low doses added to water supplies, can be especially harmful to the thyroid gland, kidney patients, babies, seniors and people who drink high amounts of water. They also revealed critical fluoride safety studies have never been done and studies linking fluoride to cancer and lower IQ are plausible.
Thirty-six human studies now link fluoride to lowered IQ, some at levels considered safe in the US. See: http://www.fluoridealert.org/articles/iq-facts/
After 68 years of water fluoridation, the Centers for Disease Control reports that up to 60% of 12-15 year-olds are affected with fluoride overdose symptoms – dental fluorosis, white spotted, yellow, brown and/or pitted teeth. Yet, the CDC says More young kids face cavity crisis in US
Tooth decay crises are occurring in all fluoridated cities and states because Americans can’t afford dental care. New dental professionals are being created. New dental schools opened, dental expenditures have gone up substantially and tooth decay has become big business. Fluoridated toothpaste, alone is a multi-billion dollar international market.
New Hampshire passed first ever state-wide fluoride warning law that 6-month-olds should not be routinely fed infant formula mixed with fluoridated water to avoid dental fluorosis.
