DERRY — Nearly 30 years ago, a group of hygienists, school nurses, and dentists in greater Derry grew concerned that students were coming to school with such painful tooth decay

Fewer than half of the state’s 450-plus schools offer dental care. The New Hampshire Oral Health Coalition, which includes the state Department of Health and Human Services, hopes to change that.
