Bridgeport Pioneers Child Dental Care Plan Led by Alfred Fones
Bridgeport authorities under Alfred C. Fones funded a city dental health program for children. The effort began with a $5,000 appropriation from the federal government and expanded to employ twenty dental hygienists in schools. By 1918 about twenty thousand children had received care, with improved grades and health outcomes reducing decay and serious illnesses. The program aims to boost intelligence and long term health through preventive dental education and treatment.
