We were in the school with the regional dentist attached, so it was regular 6 monthly appts for us... YICK... But it was good, cause you got time out of class...

Not here. DD1 is in her 3rd year at school & all we have is Medicare funded dental clinics, & a travelling dentist to rural areas. Nothing through the schools though, you have to find them & organise it yourself.
We lived 2 hours North West of Dubbo & they came into town, but here where we are more urbanised, we still have to travel 70 - 80 kms to Coffs Hospital.

We had the dental van in primary school (about 10yrs ago in Brisbane).

I went to school in Sydney. We had the dental van come to my high school, in 1997, maybe it was 1998? I was in either year 8 or 9. It was the one and only time I can remember it coming.
We never had any dental van come to my primary school, there was about 80 kids in my school and we never really got any of that stuff except for the Happy Healthy Harold/Life Education van. LOL it makes me laugh just thinking about it!

The dental vans are still around in Vic. I've taken the kids to them.
