A display of nine ornate ancient metal toothpicks
Today is #DentistsDay. Although #dentistry did not exist as a separate profession, #Romans had ways to take care of their teeth. Archaeological and textual evidence shows that they practiced tooth extraction and cauterisation of infected gums in addition to using a variety of medical concoctions.
A vintage black-and-white studio portrait of Lucy Hobbs Taylor, the first woman in the United States to earn a degree in dentistry (1866), taken in the late 19th century. She is a young woman in her 30s with a serious, composed expression, gazing directly at the camera. Her dark hair is parted in the center and pulled back into a neat bun. She wears a dark Victorian-style dress with a high collar, a light ruffled or lace collar insert, and a fitted bodice with subtle detailing. Her hands rest calmly in her lap, conveying quiet determination and professionalism. The plain backdrop and soft lighting emphasize her dignified presence as a trailblazing figure who overcame gender barriers to become a licensed dentist and advocate for women in medicine.
Happy #DentistsDay! 😬
Lucy Hobbs Taylor is the first American woman to graduate dental school (Ohio College of Dental Surgery, 1866).
By 1900, ~1,000 women had followed her into dentistry, an increase many attribute to her accomplishments.

Did you know yesterday was #DentistsDay? What better time to check out the Consensus on Environmentally Sustainable Oral Healthcare, an #OpenAccess monograph from @sheffielduni.bsky.social. The consensus identifies challenges and opportunities in sustainable oral healthcare for people and the planet
Who hasn’t discovered a gap Where you once had a crown or a cap? Then you search high and low. Where the hell did it go? If you’re lucky, it fell in your lap. But more likely, it’s gone or destroyed; Need a new one to fill that damn void. You’re apparently fucked; That doc you have ducked For years must, alas, be employed. © Madeleine Begun Kane MadKane.com
