The Modern Trend Of Prosthetics, Arlo M. Rahrig Jun 1930

The Modern Trend Of Prosthetics, Arlo M. Rahrig

Bachelors’ Theses

This is a short discussion on the technique of denture construction which is being employed by the most prominent and successful prosthetists of today. Since it is annoying to have a technical investigation misinterpreted because of lack of uniformly applied terms, there is a necessity to annex concise definitions to the technique. Thus a strenuous effort will be made to closely adhere to the original meaning of standard terms and to modify these or add to them as little as possible when they are comprehensive. In the past it was customary to include into an articulator technique many bombastic theories …

Anesthesia Advancement Since Nineteen Hundred, Glenn Prescott Williams Jun 1929

Anesthesia Advancement Since Nineteen Hundred, Glenn Prescott Williams

Bachelors’ Theses

The greatest reason for using an anesthetic is to reduce pain for the patient. If we can do an operation without pain we are doing a great beneficial service to humanity. Hippocrates says "Divinum est opus sedan dolarum," meaning Divine is the work to subdue pain. In some cases it is best not to give an anesthetic as in case of cavity preparation which is very near the pulp. The pulp may be permanently injured by ever instrumentation.

Uses Of Ultra-Violet Rays In Dentistry, Lawrence Donald Triana Jun 1929

Uses Of Ultra-Violet Rays In Dentistry, Lawrence Donald Triana

Bachelors’ Theses

For Many centuries it was known or suspected that exposure to the rays of the sun for varying periods was beneficial to the health.

The knowledge however, of the action of the rays is not very profound …

Some Of The Interesting Facts In The Evolution Of The Treatment Of Pyorrhea Alveolaris, Irving Bernard Paul Jun 1929

Some Of The Interesting Facts In The Evolution Of The Treatment Of Pyorrhea Alveolaris, Irving Bernard Paul

Bachelors’ Theses

In attempting to write a paper on any topic relative to dentistry a student is handicapped in that none of his statements are based upon actual practical experience. Necessarily all the information gathered must come from the literature on the subject that in its makeup is not too technical. Essentially, then, this thesis will be a restating of the writings of those investigators who presented their findings in the most simplified manner and to the mind of the student arrived at the most logical conclusions of their findings. It will be the author's attempt to so make use of the …

Celluloid And Hecolite Dentures, Gilbert Clair Wildman Jun 1929

Celluloid And Hecolite Dentures, Gilbert Clair Wildman

Bachelors’ Theses

Celluloid gives the most natural appearance of all the plastic vegetable bases used in making dentures. It closely resembles porcelain in the translucent live-tissue color of the mucous membrane and gums. In some cases, it proves very satisfactory while it discolors and quickly disintegrates in some mouths. Vulcanite is usually more durable. The value of celluloid depends upon the care given it by the possessor and the manipulation of the material while under construction.

Operative Dentistry Today And Fifty Years Ago, William Kenneth Quinn Jun 1929

Operative Dentistry Today And Fifty Years Ago, William Kenneth Quinn

Bachelors’ Theses

The practice of dentistry was, formally divided into three departments, viz: operative dentistry, mechanical dentistry and oral surgery.

Mechanical dentistry included the supplying of substitutes whose roots as well as crowns had been lost, the making of splints for broken jaws, obturators and vela for cleft palates, and appliances for regulating teeth. The term "mechanical dentistry" was used for all those appliances made in the laboratory for use in the …

The Use Of The Chemico-Pathology Laboratory In The Dental Clinic, Matilda Mary Steinbrecher Jan 1928

The Use Of The Chemico-Pathology Laboratory In The Dental Clinic, Matilda Mary Steinbrecher

Bachelors’ Theses

The reason why the practice of dentistry is sometimes criticized to-day is because it was separated from the practice of medicine at a time when mouth disorder as a cause of systemic disease was not recognized, and mechanical restoration of teeth was made the foundation of dentistry. The keynote in judging a man's ability was by the expertness of his mechanical skill. This attitude toward dentistry, not only by the medical men but by the laity as well, has been a regrettable weakness in the dental profession. The dentist's work was regarded as entirely mechanical and for the purpose of …
