We focused on \"<i>Le Chirurgien Dentiste, or Traité des Dents</i>\" in both French and English, looking for information about the oral diseases diagnosed and treated by Fauchard. Information on patient history, disease description, treatment applied, and clinical follow-up was collected. A contemporary analysis of the diseases was performed, and the collected data were systematized, reported, and analyzed descriptively, according to the current literature on the addressed topics. Information on conditions such as scurvy, parulides, epulides, oral ulcers, dentoalveolar abscesses, dental alterations, and post-exodontia incidents were elucidated. Findings indicated that Pierre Fauchard described, diagnosed, and treated different soft and hard tissue diseases of great interest to the fields of oral medicine and oral and maxillofacial pathology.</p>","PeriodicalId":73982,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the history of dentistry","volume":"72 2","pages":"115-131"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142047614","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article examines the symbolic significance of this dental procedure and the extracted tooth as an expression of loss, disempowerment, and territorial dispossession. The comparison covers a wide range of visual representations from the French Revolution (1789-1799), the French July Revolution (1830), the Crimean War (1853-1856), the Austro-Prussian War (1866), the Franco-Prussian War (1870/71), to the First (1914-1918) and Second (1939-1945) World Wars and places them in their respective historical contexts.

Particular attention is paid to the depiction of tooth loss as a symbol of loss of power and privileges, as an act of humiliation and disenfranchisement, and as a sign of territorial expansion, inevitably at the expense of another country, which thereby loses territory and influence.</p><p><p>What happened in terms of political narratives during the period under study, and are there continuities and changes in the use of metaphors and symbols in political propaganda, and what role do emotionalization and simplification play?</p><p><p>The article also discusses ethical issues regarding the responsibility of artists and media creators when using art and symbolism as political tools.

Throughout history, humans have worked to develop materials and methods to repair such defects. Epithesis first appeared in medical literature in the 16th century. In Japan, wooden dentures were used during the first half of the 16th century. This review outlines the history of maxillofacial prosthetics and discusses the possibility of nasal and orbital epithesis creation in Japan until early modern times. Craftsmen in Japan with sophisticated skills specialized in the production of Buddhist statues, Noh masks, and Netsukes, and in the Edo period, they also specialized in the production of artificial noses and eyes. Although evidence in books, flyers, and paintings suggests the insertion of epitheses, no physical trace has been found that were actually used. This lack of physical evidence may be attributed to the deterioration and corrosion of the wooden material, making it undetectable over time. In the future, examination of the orbit, nasal cavity, and oral cavity with extreme care when excavating human bones, traces of such epitheses may be identified.</p>","PeriodicalId":73982,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the history of dentistry","volume":"72 3","pages":"243-258"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142960082","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
