School dental service served children well | Letter

The article discusses the former school dental service, which provided comprehensive dental care for children in the 1960s. The author, Marcia Thompson, trained as a dental auxiliary and worked in the school dental service for over 20 years. The service ensured that every child had access to dental treatment, with the school dental officer visiting every school in their area. Nervous children and those with special needs were particularly well cared for. However, this service no longer exists, to the detriment of the dental health of many children.
