DENTAL TREATMENT
N.Z. SYSTEM PRAISED
Colonel T. A. Hunter, Director of Dental Hygiene, has returned to Wellington after a visit to America and Great Britain.
While on his travels he took advantage of the opoprtuuities afforded him of seeing what is being done in other countries in regard to the dental treatment of young children in other coun-
tries,
In America he delivered two addresses in which he gavo details of the New Zealand system for the dental treatment of children, and opinions were expressed by speakers present strongly approving of the method in existence in the Dominion. One authority weafc so far as to say that he considered it "solved the problem" of the care of the teeth. He also visited Denmark where they have started a clinic in Copenhagen.
Colonel Hunter has returned more convinced than ever that the New Zealand Government's dental system is by far the most effective, efficient, and economical than that in existence in any other country which he visited.
