of completion of the proposal was a very enriching experience, on the first day
we present each of the members and do creative activities and learning for
children.
Two days following
we present three videos of cartoon which showed the different elements of oral
hygiene and periodontal problems. At the end of the videos we made some small
questions, for example: as we brush our teeth properly, how many times a day should
brush teeth, among others.
At the end we gave
each one a coloring sheet Muelita, toothpaste and a toothbrush. That drawing
was better painted and was given a nice surprise.
Then they had to
dress up, there were four children who met this activity to get dressed, did
rounds, play with them, we had a fun time doing riddles, songs, and other
activities.

be a good brushing.
Conclusions
1) The problem of
oral hygiene in children aged 3-5 years in kindergartens, in particular garden
"my creative workshop" was presented to us as the best alternative to
develop corporate social responsibility project "tooth care" because
at this age are initiated changes of teeth. The impact has been achieved by the
project, the information will be multiplied in the family.
2) there are
bacteria around the teeth as they get to come to blows, and so it is important
to wash your hands with disinfectant soap like is vital oral health. We brush 3
times a day, after every meal, using suitable as the brush, cream, and
mouthwash yield for the care and prevention of tooth decay and other dental
problems.
3) acceptance of
corporate social responsibility project "tooth care" was very
favorable, since children were committed to maintaining oral hygiene habit for
life, also participated in the activities proposed rightly achieving awareness
of this population about the problem
Historical Setting
Tooth decay is
caused by prolonged exposure to the acids produced by bacteria in the mouth
are, we can not avoid the presence of bacteria in the air we breathe, they
enter the mouth and stick to the inside of the teeth including Indeed there are
more microorganisms in the mouth that people worldwide.
In the seventeenth
century when the plants develop sugar cane and new world until then, food is made
and prepared with much less sugar in the eighteenth century came the first
plantations of sugar beet in England. A hour almost every food we have from the
breakfast cereal until dinner eggs contain extra sugar. Bacteria are hosted on
our teeth should feel fortunate to live in the XXI century because they have a
virtually unlimited supply of free food.
In the CSR project
we want children in kindergarten "my creative workshop" understand
the care we should have, because if we do not brush our teeth are lost in
bacteria and sugar, let no bacteria or decay feed on the remains of sugar left
in our mouths and produce these acids that can destroy the beautiful smile of a
child.

Theoretical Framework
Cavities are the
main health problem in children of all ages is difficult to find a child who
does not enjoy sweets and this is where the problem starts sweets in the mouth
produce acids that damage tooth enamel. When this happens the tooth is
vulnerable to decay.
Causes:
• The sugar in the
diet, without a good cleaning in between.
• Teeth
susceptible or predisposed.
For cavities need
time to develop because what counts most is the child's age. So our initiative
is to motivate children's garden "my creative workshop" for them to
take care of their teeth and do not eat so many sweets.

frame of reference
Dental
caries is an infectious disease and progressive localized tooth that starts
with demineralization of the hard tissues of the tooth for this reason the
company
"DESSERT
DELIGHT" is Sidio or escojio the project due to teeth problem
It is considered that caries is the most common infectious disease in children
and its effects can lead to impaired growth and development. They come in the
form of white spots, as deposits of plaque or tartar brown or black spots and
can even cause small fractures or cavities.
Cavities
are caused by bacteria called Streptococcus mutans, which is transmitted
through saliva, especially the mother. The bacteria are concentrated in the
plate-shaped smooth surfaces of teeth and are activated when fermentable
carbohydrates such as sugar and acid to produce it.
The
acid formed by the bacteria attacks the surface of the tooth enamel and
destroying their deteriorating it so that its destruction causing going to
penetrate inside. It is manifested by severe pain, when decay after crossing
the pulp reaches the nerve. This process begins shortly after lunch and continue
for at least 20 minutes and can be stopped by removing food debris, brushing
and flossing.
The
loss of teeth and molars cause discomfort diverse as: difficulty chewing and
digestive problems, trouble articulating words well, for the gaps left; cause
movement and deviation of the other teeth, gums and wear self-esteem issues ,
among other problems. (http://www.esmas.com/salud/saludfamiliar/v5/420795.html)
legal framework
the
company "dessert delight" in its corporate social responsibility
project aims to develop an oral hygiene campaign in kindergarten "my
creative workshop." Espor that we were given the need to comply with this
process
Colombia,
like most Latin American countries under the import substitution model, did not
institute a regulatory environment that favored the movement of foreign
investment flows into the country. Some governments felt that foreign
investment generated loss of sovereignty of the country and unfair competition
for domestic firms. Framed within the import substitution model, was introduced
highly restrictive policies against foreign investment since the late sixties,
extending broadly to Decree 1265 of 1988.
Within
predominant elements are: prohibition of new investment and FDI in sectors
considered essential as the financial sector. Furthermore, the scheme provided
discriminate against foreign companies managed to settle in the country, as
they had no access to the liberalization program of the Cartagena Agreement,
and were subject to limitations including the remittance of profits.
Through
the mechanism of prior authorization, the state intervened in IED operations in
order to compel the national capital participation in investment projects,
avoid the acquisition of existing companies and the participation of foreign
companies in sectors that create competition to domestic firms or sectors where
the state does not consider as necessary.
During
the seventies foreign investment is governed by Decree Law 444 of 1967 and
Decree Law 1973. The latter developed Decision 24 of the Andean Pact of 1971
which forbade FDI to sectors like energy infrastructure, communications and
telecommunications, utilities and basic sanitation. The application of this
regulation, under a policy of protection and regulation of administrative
development of certain industrial sectors considered strategic by the
industrial development sector programs-PSDI-restricted dynamics of foreign
capital flows. A transnational corporations were forced to become joint
ventures after a run, and are conditioned the transfer of technology and the
price of the royalties received by it (Hommes, Montenegro and Roda, 1994), the
same way they imposed a restrictive control domestic credit, having access only
to short-term credit, in accordance with the conditions set by the Commission
of the Cartagena Agreement. This must have influenced the low flow of
productive investment received by the country during that period. In a way, the
existing regulations must have encouraged private foreign borrowing.
A counter
to institutional aspect of streamlining and facilitating investment flows
resided in the procedure by which the National Planning Department
DNP-approving or rejecting applications for FDI. Under the approval criteria of
DNP had reference: patterns of export diversification, employment generation
and the impact on the balance of payments. Additionally, the Council of
Economic and Social Policy-Conpes-was entitled to determine, according to the
priorities of development programs, whether or not to allow entry of foreign
resources. Another aspect that hindered transparency and movement of capital
flows were particular investment schemes under the Andean Group for certain
sectors considered sensitive or strategic.
The
member countries of the Andean Group, aware of the failure of the integration
strategy that guided the process for over a decade and a half, and after the
crisis of the eighties in Latin American economies found that closed the
international capital markets, were to the need to attract FDI as a means of
generating foreign exchange and to improve their external imbalances in the
balance of payments. In 1987 he adopted Decisions 220 and 244 of the Cartagena
Agreement, which were significant steps to improve conditions for foreign
investors in the industrial sector. The rules by these rules became more
flexible, although it remained rigid structure intervention and control by the
system of prior authorization, extended the time required for companies to be transformed
into joint ventures and undertakings were accepted any sector of the economy,
among others. However, this change was not large enough to attract FDI inflows.
During
the opening period gave the country a decisive step in the easing of regulations.
Since 1991 a new law was established (6) that would help boost investment
inflows into the country, reversing the trend presented in the eighties. In
1991 the Cartagena Agreement Commission adopted Decisions 291 and 292 that
derrogaron Decision 220 of 1987, eliminating the few existing restrictions on
capital movements and foreign technologies. The country acceded to
international agreements to minimize political risk (7) in order to penetrate
the international market. Under this scheme policy on foreign investment in
Colombia and domestic capital investment abroad opportunities were established
broad private investor returns, domestic and foreign. However FDI incentives
created by this law, it is also important to mention that, in 1991, under the
new Constitution of Colombia, particularly in paragraph 5 of Article 58, it was
envisaged to expropriate without compensation grounds of equity.
In the
regulatory framework of the law on the 9th of 1991, by which it adopted a new
exchange rate regime and foreign investment, were stipulated three fundamental
principles of equality, by providing equal treatment to both domestic and
foreign investors, the universality, by allowing the entry of foreign flows to
any economic activity and automaticity, the deletion of the criteria for
approval by the State with the exception of some activities (8). The only
condition of institutional compliance is the obligation of registering foreign
investors investing in the Central Bank in order to ensure their exchange
rights. Also, the laws were relaxed exchange law by removing the caps on the
repatriation of profits, capital repayments and payments for technology
transfer agreements, with the additional guarantee of maintaining this decision
despite possible subsequent legal modifications.
