Neapolitan Customs: An Elderly Lady's Tooth Extraction, Circa 1910 This evocative postcard captures the scene of an elderly Neapolitan woman preparing for a tooth extraction at the hands of a serious-looking dentist. The woman, dressed in a traditional shawl and with a concerned expression, clutches the fabric tightly as she braces herself for the procedure. The dentist, focused intently on the task at hand, holds a pair of wide, old-fashioned pliers, their menacing appearance a stark reminder of the unpleasant reality of dental care in days gone by. The tooth in question is already exposed, its dark, decayed state a testament to the lack of modern dental hygiene practices. The woman's open mouth reveals the rough, unforgiving interior of the dentist's chair, its worn leather and metal fixtures a far cry from the comfortable, high-tech chairs of today. The atmosphere is one of quiet determination, as both the dentist and the woman know that this painful procedure is necessary to alleviate the woman's suffering. This poignant image offers a glimpse into the past, when dental care was a far more unpleasant and daunting experience than it is today. The use of traditional tools and techniques, combined with the lack of anesthesia, would have made tooth extractions a harrowing ordeal for many people, especially the elderly. Yet, despite the discomfort and fear, the woman trusts her dentist to perform the procedure with skill and care, a testament to the bond of trust and respect that existed between patients and healthcare providers even in the most challenging of circumstances.
