Abstract:
A sample of 422 students at the Australian National University was examined in 1972. Results for the 302 full-time student sample were considered significant and are presented in this report. The students were found to have a relatively low (for Australia) DMFT of 13.8, Oral Hygiene Index of 0.9 and Periodontal Index of 0.75. Seventy-two percent of students had attended a dentist within the previous year and F/DMFT ratio was 76 percent. Estimates of time and costs of treatment needs are presented.
