Un estudio de los textos referentes a los dientes en la época romana, desde los etruscos hasta la caída del Imperio Romano

Abstract

With the present study we try to review the most relevant writers who, in sorne way, have focus on Dentistry. By this, we therefore want to achieve a particular vision on Dentistry in the Roman times, though it might be, somehow, a parcial one; in order to do this, we will pay more attention to what we may cal! the dental physiopatology: its constitution, diseases and treatment for the illness that may be derived from its bad condition.
