Dental surgery – history

The history of dental surgery is very long and dates back to ancient times. As far back as ancient Egypt, oral surgeons performed simple surgical procedures, such as removing teeth. In the Greco-Roman period, doctors were already using more complicated procedures, such as implanting the teeth of dead people.

In the Middle Ages and during the Renaissance, dental surgery developed along with the progress of medical science and surgical techniques. At the beginning of the 17th century, the first dental instruments, such as staples, pliers and scissors, appeared. In the eighteenth century, the first attempts at local anesthesia appeared, and in the nineteenth century, general anesthesia began to be used.

In the twentieth century, there was a great development of dental surgery, thanks to technological and medical progress. New techniques and surgical instruments were developed, and new methods of anesthesia and pain control were introduced. In the 1960s and 1970s, dental implants were introduced into dental practice, which became a revolution in the field of tooth reconstruction. Currently, dental surgery is a field that is constantly evolving, introducing new technologies and innovative solutions.
