SECTION ill WORK STATEMENT
Background
Tooth decay is the most prevalent chronic disease currently affecting children, accounting for
approximately 51 million school hours lost each year in the United States. Tooth decay and
resultant pain can have an adverse effect on overall health, good nutrition, self-esteem, and ability
to learn. Among the 43 states that collect data in the same way, Arizona ranks #3 in highest
percentage (over 40%) of third grade children with untreated tooth decay. Conversely, the state
of Washington has the lowest percentage of children with untreated tooth decay (less than 15%)
among the Western states.
Dental sealants are a proven best-practice for reducing tooth decay in the chewing surfaces of
permanent molars. These teeth are best protected if dental sealants are applied soon after these
molars erupt (second and sixth grades). Dental sealants can protect these molar chewing
surfaces from decay for many years. The procedure takes about 15 minutes per child, is pain
free, and requires no “shots” or drilling.
School-based dental sealant programs are evidence-based and provide a safe, inexpensive
model for delivering sealants to school-age children, with less learning time lost.
This intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) will bring dental screenings and sealants to eligible
schools in the Peoria Unified School District (PUSD). A licensed dentist will provide written take-
home findings and a list of dental clinics to aif (insured and uninsured) second and sixth grade
students who return “positive” parental consent forms. The program will then provide dental
sealants to any of these same students who are clinically eligible and uninsured, or currently
enrolled in AHCCCS or KidsCare. These preventive services are provided at no cost to the school
or the child.
1. PURPOSE
The purpose of this IGA is to develop a framework of cooperation between MCDPH and
School District to provide dental sealants to eligible students for the prevention of tooth
decay.
2. STATEMENT OF MUTUAL BENEFIT AND INTERESTS
The mutual benefit for both parties is the prevention of tooth decay for students without
private dental insurance.
3. MCDPH SHALL:
A. Contact and schedule a dental sealant screening date for eligible District Schools
that have submitted a Program application form to MCOOH.
B. Provide program information and parental consent forms, one month in advance
of the scheduled screening date, to the school nurse or designated liaison.
ion Provide technical assistance to the school nurse or designated liaison to ensure
successful implementation of the Program.
D. Provide licensed dentists and dental hygienists, and trained dental assistants to
conduct the dental screening and dental sealant activities at each school.

SECTION Ili
WORK STATEMENT
E. Check State Board of Dental Examiners licensing records on licensed MCDPH
dental providers; conduct background checks of all dental providers.
F, Supply identification badges for dental providers.
G. Instruct all dental providers to register in the school office upon arrival on campus.
H. Furnish/bring all necessary dental supplies needed to conduct the dental
screening/sealant activities on School District premises.
I. Ensure that assigned space for conducting the dental sealant activities is returned
to its original condition.
J. Provide oral health education materials for parents, teachers and school nurse.
K. Provide community dental clinic information to parents, teachers and school nurse.
L. Provide program evaluation form for school nurse or liaison to submit following
program completion.

the number of children screened, the number of eligible children needing and
receiving dental sealants, the number of sealants placed and the dollar value, and
a list of students urgently needing dental treatment.
N. Maintain all student information according to confidentiality requirements.
4, SCHOOL DISTRICT SHALL:
A. Promote participation in the dental sealant program at district schools through
communication with principals, teachers, school office, and health office
personnel.
B. Require school health personnel and teachers of second and sixth grade students
to make distribution and receipt of parental consent forms a priority.
ion Keep returned consent forms separated by class and give them to the dental team
upon arrival.
D. Provide adequate physical space at each school for the dental screening and
sealant treatment services to be delivered because the school-based dental
sealant program promotes the education function of the District. The space at
each school will include at a minimum:
1) A room or area large enough to accommodate the dental team, equipment,
and several children.
2) Aroom or area where the equipment may stay overnight if the team needs
to return the following day.
3) One table and large trash receptacle per dental team.
