A History of Dentistry: From the Most Ancient Times Until the End of the Eighteenth Century is a comprehensive account of the evolution of dentistry from its earliest origins to the end of the 18th century. Written by the renowned Italian dentist Vincenzo Guerini, the book covers the development of dental practices and techniques in various cultures and civilizations, including the ancient Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans, as well as the Middle Ages and Renaissance periods in Europe. It explores the contributions of key figures in the field, such as Pierre Fauchard and Giovanni Battista della Porta, and examines the impact of scientific discoveries, such as the discovery of anesthesia and the introduction of porcelain teeth. The book also delves into the social and cultural aspects of dentistry, including the role of dentists in society and the evolution of dental education and training. With its detailed analysis and rich historical context, A History of Dentistry is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history of dentistry and the evolution of medical practices.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
