What Is a Denturist?
Dentists, referred to as dentists, teach people how to protect teeth and gums from an early age, but their daily work is mostly to treat dental diseases. When the patient has tooth decay, the dentist removes the decayed part of the tooth and then fills it. Sometimes, the dentist removes the entire tooth and replaces it with dentures.

- We can find some rough-filled teeth from early human skulls, as well as ancient dentures. A wooden panel found in an ancient tomb dating back to 3000 BC in Egypt, painted with "Hesse", which is a doctor, dentist, or "dentist" In 1400, Henry IV of the United Kingdom appointed Flint as a "London Extractor" to treat people with dental problems, giving him six pence a day as a reward. Tooth extraction is a very painful thing. Sometimes, tooth extraction is still a punishment and it is a job of the executioner.
- Before the 19th century, dentists did not have a good reputation. It was not until the emergence of dentist schools that dentistry skills improved. In 1878, the British government passed a law to ensure that dentists must be orthodoxly trained. In 1872, the United States invented the dental drill for modern dentists. Early dental drills work on the same principle as sewing machines. Dentists use their feet to control the pedals to make them rotate. The latest dental drills are powered by compressed air or water and can rotate 500,000 times per minute.
- China originated from the establishment of the Department of Dentistry in Chengdu West China Union University in 1917 by Canadian dentist AW Lindsay. Two years later it was expanded into the Dental College, the highest modern dental education institute in China. Well-known dental professionals and professors who have been trained or worked in this higher education institution include: Wang Shunqing, Xiao Zhuoyan, Yue Songling, Wang Hanzhang, Qiu Weiliu and other senior dental experts.
