Jay Describes Modern Work
In Prevention Of Tooth Decay

pletely successful cure for control of In the method, based on these dis-
tooth decay, Dr. Philip Jay of the coveries which is now used in the
School of Dentistry stated yesterday, treatment of decay cases, Dr. Jay
in describing work of the last few said, is to first make an analysis of the
years resulting in the most modern! patient's salive in order to estimate
ways of prevention and arrest of de-
cay.
"We can promise nothing," Dr. Jay
said, "only to say that in the more
serious cases of tooth decay some re-
lief is usually given if the advice we
offer is carefully followed." Serious
cases, he said, are those that often,
have new decay starting every two
or three months.j
The most intensive phase of re-'
search on tooth decay control, Dr.
Jay said, was begun about eight years
ago in 1929. The work was made
possible at that time by a grant from
the Children's Fund of Michigan set
up by the late Senator, James Cou-
zens. At this time people were sought
who had nearly perfect teeth in which
no dental work had been necessary.
Great difficulty was experienced in
finding such cases, he declared, for
not more than five per cent of all per-
sons in the United States have teeth
which have never needed dental re-
pair.
Saliva Tested
"While nothing much of value can
be obtained in the way of case his-
tory from such a group," Dr. Jay
said, "still we learned many things of
value. By means of saliva tests and
examinations of blood samples taken
from the subject's mouths we were
the number of decay organisms per
cubic centimeter. This information
is relayed to the patient's own physi-
cian who is thus enabled to prepare a
diet which is featured by the small
amount of carbohydrate present.
Patient Checks Up
The patient returns to the dental
school after a period of two weeks and
a checkup is made. Dr. Jay added
that nearly always it is found that
the diet has sent the number of decay
bacteria down preciptously, checking
the rate and amount of decay.
The first work of the research was
mainly concluded in 1932 and further
results have been achieved since that
time mainly through the application
of principles evolved. The more re-
cent work has been made possible Qy
