EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century, titled "The teeth in health and disease" offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of family medicine and dental health during that era. The print showcases an array of intricate illustrations depicting various aspects related to oral health. In this historical artwork, we see a combination of popular knowledge and scientific understanding come together to provide advice on maintaining healthy teeth. The image features children alongside adults, emphasizing the importance of dental care for all ages. From incisors to molars, every type of tooth is meticulously depicted, highlighting their significance in our overall well-being. Interestingly, the artist incorporates elements from nature by including beaks and bills resembling those found in parrots and hawks. This artistic choice serves as a reminder that even animals require proper dental care to alleviate pain or prevent diseases. "The teeth in health and disease" engraving was originally created as an illustration for "The Family Doctor and Peoples Medical Adviser" publication on June 19th, 1886. Its purpose was not only to educate but also to offer practical guidance for individuals seeking relief from tooth-related ailments. As we admire this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection today, it reminds us how far dentistry has advanced over time while appreciating the wisdom passed down through generations regarding oral hygiene practices.
