First edition.<\/span><\/p>\n An excellent work, one of the first devoted entirely to children’s teeth. In it, Robert Bunon (1702-1748) proves that milk teeth are well supported by roots, but that this part is gradually destroyed by absorption as the second teeth develop. He explained that poorly arranged teeth are often due to the presence of the first set of teeth, and advised that baby teeth that shift should be pulled out quickly. He also made a distinction between caries and erosion, and proved that erosion was the cause of the destruction of teeth in their sockets before they had even emerged. Thanks to his important writings, he is regarded today as the father of pedodontology.<\/p>\n “The first book incorporating specialized odontological research. Bunon investigated the genesis of enamel hypoplasia”(Garrison-Morton).<\/p>\n \u00ab En 1747 il est nomm\u00e9 dentiste des filles du Roi et donne des conseils aux m\u00e8res concernant l\u2019hygi\u00e8ne de leurs enfants. Il se consacre \u00e0 la pr\u00e9vention et sera consid\u00e9r\u00e9 pour beaucoup comme le pr\u00e9curseur de la p\u00e9dodontie. Son c\u00e9l\u00e8bre ouvrage Essay sur les maladies des dents para\u00eet trois ans apr\u00e8s la deuxi\u00e8me \u00e9dition du Chirurgien-dentiste de Fauchard en 1746. Ce trait\u00e9, divis\u00e9 en six chapitres, est essentiellement consacr\u00e9 aux enfants. Il se penche sur les \u00e9tiologies, la pathog\u00e9nie, les th\u00e9rapeutiques et la pharmacop\u00e9e de la carie en mettant l\u2019accent sur le risque de contamination carieuse d\u2019une dent \u00e0 l\u2019autre. Il comprend l\u2019importance de conserver une dent vivante le plus longtemps possible et mets en place une th\u00e9rapeutique apparent\u00e9e aux actuels coiffages pulpaires \u00e0 base de cannelle ou de girofle. Il s\u2019int\u00e9ressera \u00e9galement aux MIH et aux autres anomalies de l\u2019\u00e9mail et de la dentine qu\u2019il nomme alors \u00ab \u00e9rosion \u00bb (Caroline Fauchet, La Dentisterie, p. 51)<\/p>\n Rubber stamp of Acad\u00e9mie de Dijon on the title and on page 31.<\/p>\n Good copy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" 12mo (166 x 94 mm) XII, 237 pp., 1 nn.l.
