Dentist Dr Garth Pettit Campaigns Again To Not Advise Children 'Brush Your Teeth'

Garth Pettit, June 6, 2007, Katherine, N.T. Australia


Where am I now?

I came out of retirement again last January 2006 and since then have been the Dentist Manager NT Government Oral Health Services in Katherine in The Northern Territory of Australia. Another posting involving supplying oral health services to adults and particularly to schools and school children.

MORE PARTICULARLY, to preventing oral diseases in children!


What have I been doing since my last blog up-date?
Not sleeping!
Not dozing!
Not playing golf!
Not holidaying in exotic places!
But patiently, perseveringly and persistently plodding on with my passion to prevent oral diseases. Especially by educating children to become self-motivated to prevent oral disease throughout their lifetimes.

However, recently, precisely in fact, on 12/05/2007 USA time, I received a massive jolt to my mental, emotional and spiritual self. A mind boggling stopper of gigantic proportions! Energy comparable with a destructive Tsunami!

Immense energy, but GIGANTIC, CONSTRUCTIVE, CREATIVE POSITIVE, ENERGY! It was a simple affirmation of an amazing opportunity to super charge my passion to prevent oral diseases in children. I grasped it.

MASSIVE AND FREE PUBLICITY!!
Publicity to use as you freely you chose to use. No restrictions to your creativity!

I had just received the following email from Ben Mack:

"Dare to be naive. " -R. Buckminster FullerWHO ELSE WANTS TO BE IN...A Reality TV show about newbies making a million dollars online 1) Pilot TV show has a $25,000 cash prize, guaranteed. Garth, first you win $25,000 cash, then the world's best mentors in the world coach you directly on making another $975,000. 2) PR Goal: Create 1+ new Internet millionaire (Joel needs to make at least one millionaire in order to get GREAT publicity)Garth, Are you willing to be one of 12 guinea-pigs?Casting is now open...http://clicks.aweber.com/z/ct/?K9k23O7YqmZSq44BFdjHLQAre you:-> Lovable-> Motivated by money-> Geeky-> Sexy, or-> Controversial?We think we want you, Garth.

BenEnter now...http://clicks.aweber.com/z/ct/?K9k23O7YqmZSq44BFdjHLQ

Blog readers, the ‘only compete if you are ok with getting massive publicity...’ stopped me dead in my tracks and since then I have been getting on with the job of initiating the first installment of MASSIVE publicity to help prevent oral diseases in children.

I saw it as the GREATEST EVER OPPORTUNITY, an opportunity far greater than anything I could realistically have imagined. It could lead me to helping millions of children, around the whole world, to prevent oral diseases. The opportunity was simply in the form of an internet video competition.

The contest was the brain child of Joel Comm, an eminently successful internet marketing guru. There was no cost to submit an audition video.

I kept looking over and over and over at Ben Mack’s email and decided to go for it..

I had my friend Richard Coburn film my audition video.

I uploaded my audition video into YouTube’s website, completed registration details and received an email of acceptance as a contender for the competition “Next Internet Millionaire”. That was at 00:10 on 25/05/2007. The first round voting was already well advanced, having started on May 9 2007 and scheduled to end on June 6 2007.

However, despite my video being given 4.3 out of 5 for content and 0 from 5 for votes, I was immediately located in the Top 50 contestants! Clearly, I had some work to do to get votes, more votes and more votes to get into the second round.

What have I done since then?

Dentist, Dr Garth Pettit Campaigns Again to Not Advise Children 'Brush Your Teeth;' Dr. Pettit Seeks Campaign Publicity Through The Next Internet Millionaire Contest
Dr Pettit has persistently pursued, in a 6 year long battle against authorities of Dental Profession and Education Departments, banishing the oral hygiene instruction "Brush Your Teeth" and replacing it with "Treat Your Whole Mouth".
Katherine, Northern Territory, Australia (PRWEB) May 26, 2007 -- Dr Pettit has persistently pursued, in a 6 year long battle against authorities of Dental Profession and Education Departments, banishing the oral hygiene instruction "Brush Your Teeth" and replacing it with "Treat Your Whole Mouth".
Education Departments take advice from the Dental Profession and use resources provided by them or by dentifrice manufacturers when preparing oral health and oral healthcare education lessons for children in classrooms. The advice they give, "Brush Your Teeth", is a 15th Century tooth cleaning instruction.
Garth's Next Internet Millionaire Audition
To gain publicity for his campaign to banish oral disease in children Dr Pettit has auditioned for The Next Internet Millionaire Contest.
Dentist, Dr. Garth Pettit's previous campaigns with resultant world-wide interest are documented in these three previous PRWeb press releases:
Dr Pettit's PRWeb press release, November 8th 2004, titled "New Oral Hygiene Instruction Set To Prevent Oral Disease In Children" has a reading count of 118,478 and has been picked up by 3,395 consumer/ media persons. http://www.prweb.com/releases/2004/11/prweb176228.htm
Dr Pettit's PRWeb press release, November 9th 2004, titled "New Oral Hygiene Instruction "Treat Your Mouth" Predicted To Prevent Oral Disease In Children. "Brush Your Teeth" Contributes to Oral Disease and Should be Banished." " has a reading count of 122,711 and has been picked up by 2,582 consumer/ media persons. http://www.prweb.com/releases/2004/11/prweb176585.htm
Dr Pettit's PRWeb press release, June 10th 2005, titled "Dentist Announces New Oral Health Campaign, "The MouthWiseLife Campaign to Prevent Oral Diseases in Children", Targeting Mothers of Young Children" " has a reading count of 202,003 and has been picked up by 3,556 consumer/ media persons.
http://www.prweb.com/releases/2005/6/prweb249613.htm
Dr Pettit, encouraged by the impressive responses to these 3 press releases, had been looking for an opportunity to step-up pressure, on authorities responsible for oral health education for children, to make changes. Dr Pettit believes children should be advised to 'Treat Your Whole Mouth", a totally oral, oral hygiene instruction and to banish forever the 500 year old, passed-it's-use-by-date, tooth-only-cleaning instruction "Brush Your Teeth".
That opportunity came on Saturday 12th May 2007 when Dr Pettit received an email from a well known internet marketer, Ben Mack, alerting him to the contest for The Next Internet Millionaire announced on 9th June 2007 at the website http://www.nextinternetmillionaire.com/. Dr Pettit believed publicity surrounding the contest would be valuable publicity for his campaign.
The winner of The Next Internet Millionaire Contest, a Reality TV contest conceived by internet marketing guru Joel Comm, would receive USD$25,000 cash and the opportunity to do a year-long, large scale, internet marketing Joint Venture with Joel Comm. This JV offered an amazing opportunity to maybe earn USD$1 Million and massive publicity.
The Next Internet Millionaire Contest would provide contestants with massive free publicity throughout the contest with publicity increasing at each round of the contest
Dr Pettit believed the opportunity to take his campaign into The Next Internet Millionaire Contest was not luck but simply a matter patience, perseverance and persistence and opportunity Also the opportunity to learn from twelve eminently successful internet marketing entrepreneurs augured well for his campaign to banish oral disease in children."Garth's Next Internet Millionaire Audition" audition video was submitted for The Next Internet Millionaire Contest on 25th May 2007 at the website http://www.nextinternetmillionaire.com/. Dr Pettit wishes to thank, for full video production, Richard Coburn, Acoustics in Art Media Productions, Tel: 618 8971 1922
