Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Dental Diseases in Relation to Public Health
Considerable progress has already been made with regard to the dissemination of knowledge on this subject through the agency of Medical O?icers of Health, School Medical Officers, dentists, and physicians; nevertheless, so long as medical students are not taught the subject, still more, so long as their attention is misdirected with regard to the rationale of the oral secretions, progress in the prevention of dental and concomitant and consequent diseases will be very seriously handicapped. On the other hand, when the physiology of oral hygiene is properly taught, dental caries and consequent and concomitant diseases will soon practically cease to exist in all families which are brought up with reasonable care and intelligence.
