Fauchard is well called th® father of modern dentistry. His mo- mentous book published jn 1728 establish- ed a new dental art in the world, an art which was destined to develop into one of the mest brillant ahd helpful sci- ences. It was also Fauchard who sug- gested porcelain as an improvement over bone and ivory in the mamufacture of artificial teeth. Previously, through the centuries, artificial teeth had been made from human teeth, the tusks of theeele- phant and the hippopotamus or other bone or ivory. The operation of transplanting teeth is usually attributed to John Hunter, 1728-1703, who practiced it extensively and gave to it additional prominence by lanting a human tooth te e comb of a coa¥. This operation. holWwever, is alluded to by Ambrose Pare, 1509-1590.

Deatal colleges have become foremost educa- tlonal institutions, Dental clinls and dental research work are being conduct- ed on extensive seales throughout the country. The twentieth century has brought a ereat renalssance in dentistry. Research has proved that general health is depend- ent to a large degree upon tooth health, that the mouth is one of the three poiats at which systemic disease has its incep- tion. The other two are.the tonsils and the nasal cavity. Tooth Wealth Affects Body Health. Heart and iidney lesions, neuralgias, rheumatiem, headaches, "a whole body fuil of neuroses, deafness, blindness, gastritis” and scores of other physical as weil as mental afflictions of humans have been found frequently to have their orizin in abscessed or pyorrheal teeth. The world has learned that goneral health and tooth health are so closely bound up that not even the wisest path- ologlst can say where one leaves off and the other bezins. And so dentlstry ‘has become a sdience—a VEry emact sclence. Tt has become highly specialized taking its place in point of importance with the surgery of any other part of the body.
