title: Dentistry in the People's Republic of China with particular reference to gerodontology.
abstract: The People's Republic of China is increasingly becoming open to the West, and a number of visits have recently been, and are about to be, made by British dentists. In November 1988, the authors of this report made a 2-week lecture tour, under the auspices of the Health Co-operation Agreement between the Department of Health (UK) and the Chinese Ministry of Public Health, organised by the British Council. The principal base for the visit was the Institute of Geriatrics at the Beijing Hospital, where seven lectures were given. Further lectures and seminars were given to staff and postgraduate students at the Fourth Military University in Xian.
