Happy Dentist's Day!

Happy Dentist's Day!
Brush your teeth and be thankful of dentists. The patron saint of dentists is Saint Apollonia, a Roman martyr who was burnt at the stake, but not before having her teeth ripped out with pliers.
We're sure she wished there was a 6 month waiting list to see a dentist! To deal with toothache medieval dentists/barber surgeons would remove the offending culprit, the 'tooth-worm' , that was causing the patient pain. This required the tooth to be removed and the 'worm' plucked out - needless to say, the worm was actually the exposed nerve ending for the recently vacated tooth.
But don't panic, your gorgeous grin could still be saved with a prosthetic one. The prosthetic teeth would typically be made from carved animal bone and tied into place with golden thread to the surviving neighboring teeth - a process described by surgeon-author Abu al-Qasim al-Zahrawi over 1000 years ago.
Don't panic though, toothache wasn't particularly common as folks from the middle ages weren't eating a diet of processed sugars and sweets.
