[From a hippopotamus tooth to a porcelain tooth].

The history of dentistry is written as if thousands of years of obscurity were followed by a couple of hundred years of enlightenment. The turning point was the work of the Father of Modern Dentistry Pierre Fauchard (1678-1761). But historically speaking this notion of progress has theoretical and practical disadvantages. In this article a practical example is given, that of porcelain. The production developed completely in the times of obscurity and only a simple pharmacist just saw the possibilities of the result in dentistry.

[The correlation among pulp chamber, tooth length and tooth width in different age groups].

Computing the quotients of pulp chamber length/tooth length and pulp chamber width/tooth width for canines and lower premolars on orthopantomograms of subjects aged between 19 and 65 years led to the following result: significant reduction in length quotient and highly significant reduction in width quotient with increasing age. The reduction in width was considerably greater than in length.
