Synopsis: A Dental Odyssey
The author’s recollections are a rare look inside Dentistry, within a meaningful and entertaining historic framework. The level of detail is unstinting and refreshing, providing health consumers with satisfying nuggets of solid information.
Selden’s message is clear: Valuable benefits accrue when the patient becomes an informed partner with the Doctor, especially in interpreting symptoms.
Within a towering Rocky Mountain ski resort we are drawn into the arcane world of dental decay, from its cause to its epidemic levels during the Middle Ages—along with the Bubonic plague dental infections defined those tragic European years.
The fascinating history of acupuncture, and its introduction to American Medicine and Dentistry is detailed and exciting. Selden highlights this section by telling how he amazingly stops a patient’s agonizing toothache with his first use of acupuncture.
The inner world of root canal therapy, seen through an operating microscope, provides clarity and understanding.
The very moving account of Selden’s failure to successfully treat an important tooth for a patient, leads to her consoling him: a rare reversal of roles.
Reaching back to Dental School days, we hear how the confrontation with cadavers, along with their noxious odors, challenges the determination of some to follow this career.
