Swindon Village Dentist Milton Surgery
EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to 1947 in the quaint village of Milton, Swindon, as we take a peek into the Medical Fund Society Dental Surgery. Located on the first floor of the historic Milton Road building, this dental surgery was just one of the many services provided by the Medical Fund Society. Established in 1892, the Milton Road building was a hub of health and wellness for the community. In addition to the dental surgery, it housed swimming baths, Turkish and Russian Baths, and a dispensary. This photo captures the dental rooms in their prime, filled with essential dental equipment and tools of the trade. The Medical Fund Society was a mutual aid organization that provided financial assistance and healthcare services to its members. The dental surgery was an essential part of the organization's offerings, offering affordable dental care to those in need. The dentist, dressed in his white coat and holding a dental mirror, is seen examining a patient's teeth. The patient, seated in the dentist chair, looks calm and focused, trusting in the expertise of the dental professional. The atmosphere in the dental surgery is one of cleanliness and professionalism. The walls are adorned with calming posters and diagrams, while the shelves are lined with various dental instruments. The windows let in natural light, creating a bright and airy space. This photo offers a rare glimpse into the past, providing us with a glimpse into the everyday life of a dental surgery in a small village in Swindon over 70 years ago. It is a reminder of the importance of dental health and the role that community organizations played in providing essential services to their members.
