Bachelors’ Theses

Anesthesia is a condition of insensibility to pain, either in part, or in whole. It may be divided into two classes: natural and artificial.

History Of Anaesthesia, Pedro Crisafi

Bachelors’ Theses

"And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept. And He took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof.” Thus is described the first case of anesthesia on record. It is certain that attempts to relieve the pain of surgical procedures extend back to remote times.

Commercial Laboratories From The Professional Point Of View, Victor I. Teltsch

Many of the dentists who practiced seventy years ago showed great skill in the laboratory phases of prosthetic dentistry. All laboratory details and procedures of denture construction, including preparation of various gold alloys, plaster of Paris, making of artificial teeth, compounding of rubber, and numerous other processes, were then considered routine duties in the practice of dentistry. At that time, crown and bridgework was another branch of the profession in which the dentist manifested his artistic and mechanical ingenuity. Elaborate bridgework requiring complex planning and preparation was in great demand. Many practitioners used their own individual designs and laboratory methods …

Electrogalvanic Phenomena Of Dental Importance, Morris Schwartz

Bachelors’ Theses

The fact that dissimilar metallic restorations in the same mouth gives rise to electrogalvanic symptoms has been recognized for over one hundred years.

However, it was not until the last decade that some attempt was made to correlate these electric phenomena with oral lesions such as leukoplakia, buccal ulcer and even carcinoma.

Ulceromembraneous Stomatitis, Emil Cerrato

Bachelors’ Theses

Recognizing the fact that considerable data has been recorded and still more work actually has been accomplished in the alleviation of the pain and suffering incident to the infection of Vincent, yet, from the comparative standpoint with what is known of other pathological conditions, this disease does not seem to receive the attention which it demands. With the exception of a numbered few, none of the more modern scientific works have any lengthy discussion in reference to this disease.
