South Acton. As this is the most crowded part of the Borough, the
cases were correspondingly more difficult to stamp out.
A great effort was made during 1937 to overtake the dental
waiting list, and it is gratifying to be able to report that at the end
of the year, only such a waiting list was left as could be overtaken
while new cases were being examined. This entailed extra sessions
for extractions, each session being a heavy one in order to cope
with the numbers, and extra help had to be engaged for the conservative
work.
