Most of the foods an the list are nutritious but why were such foods as potato chips, cheese puffs, pretzels and popcorn in- cluded? Answer: Your dentist is advising between meal snacks with a low sugar content. Sweet foods, particularly those » which are sticky and adhere to the teeth are not suitable as snack foods, Acids for- med following the presence * of sugar in the mouth are the : main cause of tooth decay. A » sweet taken between meals > promotes an acid attack > Which is stronger and lasts longer than if taken with a meal. Foods like polato chips and pretzels are low in sugar but are also low in nutrients. It would be wiser to choose foods which are both good dental and nutritional snacks. This includes food such as fruit fruits and vegetables, plain multins, peanuls, sunflower seeds, plain yogurt and cheese. .

Couldn’t I make my sand- wiches for the entire week and freeze them? ; Answer: Yes, you may freeze your sandwiches but you must take certain precautions: 1. Spread butter or margarine to edge of bread to prevent filling soaking in. 2. Use any filling except those containing crispy vegetables, e.g. lettuce or hard cooked egg (unless it is put through grinder). 3, Use mayonnaise or salad dressing in minimum amounts. 4, Wrap lunch sandwiches individually to prevent transfer of favours. 5. Leave wrapped until completely thawed — bread will stale more quickly than normal once unwrapped. 6. To retain flavour and quality do not freeze for longer than two weeks.

The cul or laceration is a common injury, and doctors are Irequently called upon to treat the results of ac- cidental encounters with knives, broken glass, and in children, hearths and celfee lables. Although most cuts are minor and superficial, all have to be assessed with some care, and proper treatment principles, must be applied to cach one lo avoid complications. Your doctor considers severai factors when he cxamines your cut, and his management will vary depending upon whal he learns. Infeclion is the major complication, at least in frequency, Was the laceration made by a clean knife or a dirty piece of metal or glass, How ald is the cul? Has it been dressed with clean bandages or a dirty handkerchief? Is the patient's tetanus immunity up to date? : ‘The location of the injury is important. A small cut on the seaip may bleed profusely, and the ex- citement of stopping the hemorrhage may result in forgetting to look for a more serious injury to the head. A fractured skull may be overlooked when a [all has ar aN Nae Us wa Nene! L , caused a scalp wound. | The location is also im- portant when possible nerve and tendon damage is being assessed. This is perhaps most likely when the cul involves the hand or fingers, bul many valuable struc- tures are close to the sur- face in various parts of the pady. Your doctor's long hours of anatomy study may serve him weil here. Next the wound itself is examined. A local anesthetic is often used first, so the exploration can be done wilhoul pain to the patient. Sometimes the wound is more extensive than first thought, and often it contains embedded dirt, sand or bits of glass. Thorough cleaning — is mandatory, and this may inke much longer than the sewing, Sume consideration must he given to the scar that is going to result after healing. A poor scar may not be significant on the leg of a middle-aged man but it certainly is if It is on the face of a 10-year-old girl. Even the lowly laceration requires considerable decision making on the part of the person repairing it. Probably the least im- portant decision is the number of stitches that will be required.
