EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the early 20th century as we explore this image of a dentist's equipment and dental instruments, dated 1920. The photograph, taken by renowned photographer Terry Parker, offers a rare glimpse into the world of dental care during this era. The image showcases an array of meticulously arranged dental tools, each one a testament to the precision and craftsmanship of the time. The instruments, primarily made of steel and metal, include familiar items such as hooks, forceps, and extractors, which were essential for performing various dental procedures. One of the most striking instruments in the photograph is the large, hooked instrument at the center of the frame. Known as a clamp or a dental forceps, this tool was used to hold teeth firmly during extractions. The intricate design of the clamp, with its curved arms and serrated edges, reflects the high level of skill and attention to detail required in dental work during this period. The photograph also features an assortment of other dental tools, including long, thin probes for examining teeth and gums, as well as various types of drills and files for shaping and preparing teeth for fillings or other treatments. This photograph offers a fascinating look into the world of dentistry during the 1920s, a time when dental care was becoming increasingly sophisticated and accessible to the general public. The image not only showcases the impressive array of tools used by dentists but also highlights the artistry and precision involved in the practice of dental medicine.
