Dr. Ken Hoffmann examines Shaelynn Theriault’s teeth on Monday morning at Westside Elementary. The dental exam was part of a statewide Oral Health Initiative, with screenings of all Wyoming third-graders. The study, authorized by the Wyoming Legislature last March, will help answer key oral health-care questions critical for improved treatment and prevention. Powell dentists Dr. Larry Akin and Dr. Melvin Ginest also provided exams at other local elementary schools. Tribune photo by Kara Bacon
