Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Diseases and Treatment of the Investing Tissues of the Teeth Before taking up the work for which we are assembled, I wish to express my appreciation of the honor conferred by the University of California in extending to me an invitation to be one of the lecturers of this Institute. I am pleased also to say a few words in commendation of the action of the University of California in adding dental courses to its extension work. It is a compliment to the profession that the importance of our service to humanity is thus recognized, and I trust that these courses will in future years continue to receive the hearty support of the profession. I wish, before this class, to compliment Dean Millberry for having seen the need of courses under University control, by men without the sphere of influence of commercial interests, and for having suggested the plan to the University authorities. Such courses should stimulate the members of the profession to keep closely abreast of the times and improve the general average of dental service. Thus we see that the University of California is promoting a scheme in which the people of the entire State should be interested, for they will in the end be the beneficiaries. The treatment of disease improves with more complete knowledge of pathology. For each disease, we should be able to apply treatment closer to the source, more directly to the cause, or actually to prevent it, as our understanding of the pathology becomes more perfect. We are all familiar with the gradual advancement in the treatment of typhoid fever, especially in the prevention of it by improved sanitation when the methods of transmission became known, and by vaccination after the effect of the infection in the development of antibodies was understood. The discovery of the role which the mosquito played in the transmission of yellow fever and malaria made it possible for our government to carry to completion the construction of the Panama Canal, the failure of the French attempt having been due principally to the ravages of these diseases. A careful review of the literature of dentistry reveals little other than very meager statements of the pathology of the diseases of the peridental membrane. The very large majority of writings on this subject concern themselves with names applied by various authors, with theories as to local and systemic causes, and with statements emphasizing the necessity of removing deposits from roots of the teeth.
