It will be seen that nearly all groups show a higher percentage for 1936 than for
1935, the only exception being a slight fall in the adolescent group. A very satisfactory
feature is the considerable rise which has taken place in respect of school
children during the last two years, and it now seems very probable that this increase
is due to the fact that a reduction was made in the charge for treatment of school
children in February, 1935.
In conclusion it may be said that the work of the hospital continues to increase
in bulk and in importance, and there is now no reason why every member of the
community should not have satisfactory natural or artificial dentures.
