Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Delightfully horrifying."--Popular Science One of Mental Floss's Best Books of 2018 One of Science Friday's Best Science Books of 2018 This wryly humorous collection of stories about bizarre medical treatments and cases offers a unique portrait of a bygone era in all its jaw-dropping weirdness. A puzzling series of dental explosions beginning in the nineteenth century is just one of many strange tales that have long lain undiscovered in the pages of old medical journals. Award-winning medical historian Thomas Morris delivers one of the most remarkable, cringe-inducing collections of stories ever assembled. Witness Mysterious Illnesses (such as the Rhode Island woman who peed through her nose), Horrifying Operations (1781: A French soldier in India operates on his own bladder stone), Tall Tales (like the "amphibious infant" of Chicago, a baby that could apparently swim underwater for half an hour), Unfortunate Predicaments (such as that of the boy who honked like a goose after inhaling a bird's larynx), and a plethora of other marvels. Beyond a series of anecdotes, these painfully amusing stories reveal a great deal about the evolution of modern medicine. Some show the medical profession hopeless in the face of ailments that today would be quickly banished by modern drugs; but others are heartening tales of recovery against the odds, patients saved from death by the devotion or ingenuity of a conscientious doctor. However embarrassing the ailment or ludicrous the treatment, every case in The Mystery of the Exploding Teeth tells us something about the knowledge (and ignorance) of an earlier age, along with the sheer resilience of human life.
Download or read book Down in the Mouth Again written by Deborah L. Marynak and published by . This book was released on 2023-02-28 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I started this little book about thirty years ago, when I discovered how difficult it was to own and operate a dental practice. I had no idea I'd be running a business when I decided to go to dental school! I had absolutely no business savvy, made every mistake possible, and when I realized my skills were better suited just doing the dentistry, I sold my practice. Starting with a degree in Dental Hygiene, then moving on to Dental School, I've probably worked in every dental setting you can name. There's an associateship, corporate, prison, nursing home, Indian Health Care, and educational settings, just to name a few. I've worked them all. As time went on, the more doctors and team members I worked with, and the more patients I treated, I was able to gather an abundance of information that I felt patients should know. This information wasn't something I needed to write down; it was ever present in my memory. I used to wonder how a doctor of dentistry could retire and give up everything they'd worked so hard to achieve. Now I'm retired and I sure don't miss these issues I've shared with you. My only hope is that you might view us a little differently now that I've shared our perspective of your visit to the dentist.
