I only remember ever having these at a dentist. When did schools check or care about your teeth?

My school checked us for scoliosis.

In Australia my public primary school had a small dental clinic inside the school, we got checkups twice a year for free.

They didn’t do any actual hardcore dentisting work like drilling for cavities ECT but they would check for issues and give the parents a summary so the parents could get any work done at a full dental clinic.

I think they would check, clean, fluoride, floss, and check/adjust braces and that’s about all. I think it was pretty standard.

Yeah we had a dental van come to school but it was still only in the van you had to have these when they did the check up, not in front of the class 😅
