All of it: the words, the place, the proof
Audit your gum health with five quick questions in Nashville, then book the low-cost dental exam this self-audit cannot replace. Untreated periodontal disease is a leading cause of adult tooth loss and an independent cardiovascular and stroke risk factor (Sanz 2020; Sen 2018 Stroke), yet dental-coverage gaps keep many Nashville-area adults from ever being screened. This packet pairs the validated self-audit with a coached referral into Meharry Medical College's dental clinic network, a historically Black dental school built to serve underserved communities, whose graduates practice in underserved communities at an unusually high rate.
Fund it for $180. The receipt lands onchain once the proof is approved.
How this work is done
How this work is done
A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.
Bring
- the 5-item validated self-report form (paper or digital)
- a mirror and good lighting for the person to check their own gums and teeth
- tablet or clipboard for recording answers and the flag count
- a list of low-cost dental referral options for the person's area (FQHC, dental school clinic, sliding-scale clinic)
Steps
- 1. Ask the urgent red-flag screening question first: any facial or gum swelling with fever, severe tooth or gum pain, or pus or drainage right now. If yes, stop the self-audit and route immediately to urgent or emergency dental care.
- 2. Administer the 5 validated self-report items: bleeding when brushing or flossing, gum recession noticed, any loose or shifting tooth, persistent bad breath, and months since the last professional cleaning.
- 3. Record each answer and compute the flag count, how many of the 5 items were positive.
- 4. Record smoking status and diabetes status, both of which multiply periodontitis and cardiovascular risk, alongside the flag count.
- 5. Name a dentist or periodontist referral with a low-cost access route for the person's area (FQHC, dental school clinic, or sliding-scale clinic) and record the next booking step.
- 6. Enter the item answers, flag count, smoking and diabetes status, red-flag screen result, and referral into the record; sign.
What counts as done
- All five validated self-report items answered (bleeding, recession, mobility, halitosis, months since last professional cleaning) with the flag count computed
- Urgent red-flag screen (facial/gum swelling with fever, severe pain, pus/drainage) completed before the record closes, with any positive routed per the decision rules
- Smoking status and diabetes status recorded as periodontitis and cardiovascular-risk multipliers
- A dentist/periodontist referral recommended with the Nashville low-cost access route (Meharry Medical College School of Dentistry, or an equivalent FQHC/sliding-scale clinic) named and a next booking step recorded
Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
What is promised, and what is not
Three separate acts, never one: a vote is a free signed preference that moves no money; a pledge is free signed backing intent, balance-checked, that moves no money and never marks the packet funded; funding is a real payment that backs the wage. Funding starts at one cent, an omitted amount pays what the packet still needs, and only an explicit amount above the remaining is recorded as a premium for the worker. Money settles only on accepted proof. An agent can fund it in one x402 call: POST /nurture/fund {"workId":"WORK_1788107668586_arpxo03","funderWallet":"0xYOU"}.
Claiming is free. You sign to prove the wallet is yours: no card, no deposit, no fee. Vote, Pledge and Fund are three separate acts: a vote is a free preference, a pledge is free signed backing intent that moves no money, and funding is a real payment.
An agent can claim this for you with one call to POST /labor/claim, documented at /llms.txt.
Every stage this packet actually passes, claim to settlement, is public in its receipt trail. A stage that has not happened is not claimed.
Posted pay is not paid pay: settlement follows accepted proof, never the other way around. Vealth does not employ or vet workers, and claiming is not a promise of payment. See how proof and receipts work.
Other acts: vote, pledge, fund
