On the wonderfully cool Sunday morning of October 7th, 2012, Greater Houston Dental Hygienists' Society visited Troop #797. Rafiq Hashmani asked GHDHS to talk to the scouts about oral hygiene. The Tigers (first graders) and the Wolves (second graders) listened to Lynn Ly RDH talked about how plaque causes cavities and how we remove plaque. The 25 cub scouts then divided up into Tiger and Wolves to learn at the two educational stations set up by GHDHS. At one station Ushma Ramaiya RDH hosted the "Meal-of-Fortune" game that puts a fun spin on cariostatic versus cariogenic snacks. At the other station Lynn Ly RDH demonstrated brushing and flossing. This was followed by Nisa Hashmani RDH handing out charts for the scouts to keep track of their brushing. Once the scouts had completed their stations, the Tigers and Wolves gathered back around to receive their diplomas and goodie bags. Nisa Hashmani RDH bought Halloween toothbrushes and tooth brush caps for the goodie bags. Afterwards, the cub master, Karishma, and the scouts thanked GHDHS for their excellent program with a scout clap.
