Time period | Development summary |
---|---|
Ancient times | Dating back to 7000 B.C., dentistry is one of the oldest medical professions. The earliest records on dentistry date back to the Indus Valley Civilization. At around 5000 BC, descriptions related to dentistry and tooth decay become available. At the time, a Sumerian text describes tooth worms as causing dental decay, an idea that wouldn't prove false until the 1700s.[1] |
Middle age | In the Early Middle Ages in Europe monks act as doctors, surgeons and dentists. However in the early 12th century the Church forbids clergy to do operations of any kind. This gives place to the merge of craftsmen called a barber-surgeons. As well as cutting hair and doing surgery, barber-surgeons pull teeth. People clean their teeth by chewing twigs. Others make toothpaste from things like crushed eggshells. However there are no toothbrushes at the time.[2] |
17th century | In Europe, some barber-surgeons begin to specialize in dentistry. Toothbrushes are introduced into England in the mid-century.[2] |
18th century | Dentistry becomes more scientific[2] and a more defined profession.[1] |
19th century | Diets change as sugar becomes increasingly available. Common consumption of refined foods and sugary treats make tooth problems more common. Howevewr, dentistry keeps a fair pace with these developing problems. European dentists start experimenting with dental implants, gold fillings are used to treat decayed teeth, and nitrous oxide is introduced as a way to ease the pain during dental extractions and other oral surgeries.[3] |
20th century | The century is one of great advances in dental technology. In the 1950s, the first fluoride toothpastes are marketed. In the 1960s, lasers are developed. In the 1990s, new advances in esthetic dentistry emerge, including tooth-colored restorative materials, bleaching materials, veeners and implants.[4][5] |
Full timeline
Year | Event type | Details | Country/region |
---|---|---|---|
7000 BC | Medical development | Human remains at the Mehgarh Neolithic site in Baluchistan, Pakistan, dating from that time show early evidence of dentistry. Holes in eleven teeth found on the site were intentionally made using ancient flint drill bits. The slight decay on the teeth suggests the patients had their teeth drilled to rid themselves of tooth decay.[6][7] | Pakistan |
5000 BC | Scientific development | A Sumerian text describes “tooth worms” as the cause of dental decay.[2][7] | Iraq |
3000 BC | Egyptian high official Hesy-Ra is one of the earliest dental practitioners remembered by name.[6] | Egypt | |
2900 BC – 2750 BC | Medical development | Egyptian skulls dating from that period contain evidence of small holes in the jaw in the vicinity of a tooth’s roots. Such holes are believed to have been drilled to drain abscesses.[8] | Egypt |
2500 BC | Medical development | Oral surgery is thought to be practiced in Egypt this early.[8][9] | Egypt |
2250 BC | Anesthesiology | A Babylonian clay tablet reveals the remedy for pain of dental cavities. A cement made by mixing henbane seed with gum mastic is used.[10] | |

1500 BC | Medical development | Accounts of dental treatment appear in Egyptian scrolls dating from that time.[8][13] | Egypt |
1000 BC | Anesthesiology | Wine is used in India to produce insensibility.[10] | India |
900 BC – 300 BC | Mayans work on teeth strictly for ritual, religious or purely self adornment purposes, instead of for dental maintenance or hygiene. Jade and turquoise stones are implanted in the teeth. Filing teeth into different shapes indicate tribal and religious affiliations. Some speculate that the Mayans were the first to perform tooth transplantation.[14] | Mexico, Guatemala | |
600 BC | Medical development | An early attempt at tooth replacement dates to Phoenicia, where missing teeth are replaced with animal teeth and are bound into place with cord.[8] | Lebanon |
400 BC | Medical development | Greek physician Hippocrates describes diseases of the mouth.[2][12] | Greece |
384–322 BC | Medical development | Aristotle writes about dentistry, describing tooth growth, tooth decay, and gum disease. Like Hippocrates, Aristotle also develops treatment methods, such as using forceps to pull teeth and using wires to attach loose teeth.[6][12] | Greece |

1210 | Medical development | A Guild of Barbers is established in France. Barbers would eventually evolve into two groups: surgeons who are educated and trained to perform complex surgical operations; and lay barbers, or barber-surgeons, who perform more routine hygienic services including shaving, bleeding and tooth extraction.[11] | France |
