EDITORS COMMENTS
This 16th century print, titled "16thc Dentist: A Barber-Surgeon Treats a Patient in the Open Air," is an intriguing glimpse into the history of dental care. The image, sourced from Mary Evans Picture Library, dates back to 1568 and depicts a barber-surgeon in the act of treating a patient outdoors. During the 16th century, dental care was not yet a distinct profession, and dental treatments were often provided by barber-surgeons. These skilled individuals were responsible for a wide range of medical and surgical procedures, including tooth extractions. The open-air setting of this print suggests that dental care was likely provided in a makeshift clinic or shop, possibly in the back of a barber's establishment. The patient in the print appears to be seated in a simple chair, with the barber-surgeon kneeling beside him. The dentist is shown using a pair of forceps to extract a tooth, while another tool, possibly a dental probe, is held in his left hand. The patient's expression suggests that the procedure is not a pleasant one, but the barber-surgeon's calm and focused demeanor conveys a sense of expertise and competence. The sign above the scene reads "Dentist," indicating that dental care was beginning to be recognized as a distinct specialty, even in its infancy. This print offers a fascinating window into the past, providing a tangible connection to the history of dentistry and the evolution of dental care from a rudimentary practice to a modern, specialized profession. The intricately detailed print is a testament to the artistic skill of the time, and its historical significance makes it a valuable addition to any collection focused on medical history, dental history, or the history of healthcare in general.
