Dental Clinic
To the Board of Health:
I herewith submit the following report of the activities of the Dental Clinic for the year ending December 31, 1939:
The clinic has completed a very successful year as shown by the fine dental condition of the children. Every child in the first six grades was examined twice and all those needing dental care were urged to have it done either by their family dentist or by the clinic. All but a very small percentage, who cannot be impressed with the necessity of child dental care, had the necessary work done.
There were 321 children receiving full dental care at the clinic. A detailed summary of the work follows:
Extractions (temp. teeth) 245
