Back to School Dental First Aid Tips:
It's that time of year again when we start to prepare for the beginning of a school year and after-school activities. When accidents happen, teeth can sometimes be completely knocked out. Many teeth can be replaced after being knocked out and some will survive very well after this.
The longer the tooth is out of the socket the poorer the chance it has of surviving long term.
First Aid for knocked out teeth :
• Replace the tooth into its socket as soon as possible. This can be done by another person or the injured person themselves.
• Hold the tooth by the crown, ensure that there is no dirt or debris on the root and wash briefly under water.
• Gently push the tooth back into its socket.
• Hold the tooth in place by biting gently on a piece of cloth and see your dentist immediately.
Access Dental (located next to Nelson Hospital) offer free dental care for Under 18's. If your teenager hasn't seen a dentist in a while book in now for a check up.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

NZ Post and Rachel Boyack
I see our MP, Labour’s Rachel Boyack, is shedding crocodile tears over the NZ Post closures announced today for Nelson. Perhaps Rachel has ‘forgotten’ it was Labour that corporatised NZ Post, intentionally turning it from a service organisation into one focused solely on profit. Her cries would be a little more credible if she could promise Labour would reopen the closed offices or, even better, reverse that Labour-directed profit-only change.
Come on Rachel, what is Labour’s real position - public service or money?
