'Idle teeth get into mischief'. The Dental Health of Walsall (UK) school children 1910-1912 and the consequent development of school dentistry in the Borough.

A Medical Inspector of Schools was appointed in Walsall Staffordshire in 1907, and her medical scrutiny of schoolchildren included a dental examination. The sections of her annual reports in 1910-12 which concerned the dental state of the 5, 7 and 14 year old children are presented. The percentage of children in these ages with one or more carious teeth was in excess of 50 per cent. The findings from these studies resulted in the appointment of the first school dental officer to Walsall Borough Corporation.
