History of Dentures From Beginning to Early 19th Century

The Dentistry Library is proud to announce a new online exhibit: History of Dentures From Beginning to Early 19th Century. Our Toronto academic libraries student intern, Usman Malik, created this exhibit using OMEKA with the aim of showcasing a selection of the Dentistry Library’s rare books on dental prosthesis from 1797 to 1922.  The online exhibit exhibition will firstly summarize the key developments of dental prosthesis in antiquity and the early modern era. Then, this exhibition will explore the types of dentures, impression taking methods, and denture materials of the 19th century. We hope you enjoy and find insightful the narratives and histories detailed in this exhibit. Read more
