title: [A method for health education of school children by dental students].
abstract: To familiarize in a practice-oriented way the students with the problems of health education, a practical course in the form of a Pioneers' afternoon with the subject "Preservation of Dental Health" was inaugurated at the Section of Stomatology of the Humboldt University in 1974. This course is described in the present paper. Due to the encouraging echo in the school children and the students, and due to the positive effects on the further course of the study of stomatology, it is recommended to introduce this form of practical course also into the curriculum of other universities.
