Excerpt from The Rise, Fall and Revival of Dental Prosthesis

The title of this lecture is so fully indicative of its character that scarcely a word of "foretalk," as the Saxons express it, seems necessary. As this is my initiatory talk to you, my lecture will be of a prefatory character in inaugurating the course in Dental Prosthesis. All that is requisite by way of preface here, is to give brief account of the within contained remarks. This proem may, at the same time, serve as an apology for some of the defects of which the author is fully conscious.

Believing it necessary that the dental student, in beginning the study of his chosen profession, should know something of its antique birth, growth and development, I felt it a duty incumbent on myself to open our acquaintance by cordially introducing to you the history of this branch of dental art and science.
