History of dental treatments

The history of dental treatments dates back to thousands of years.[1][2] The scope of this article is limited to the pre-1981 history.

The earliest known example of dental caries manipulation is found in a Paleolithic man, dated between 14,160 and 13,820 BP.[3] The earliest known use of a filling after removal of decayed or infected pulp is found in a Paleolithic who lived near modern-day Tuscany, Italy, from 13,000 to 12,740 BP.[4] Although inconclusive, researchers have suggested that rudimentary dental procedures have been performed as far back as 130,000 years ago by Neanderthals.[5] Regarding implants, one of the milestone progress is osseointegration which was termed in 1981 by Tomas Albrektsson.[6]
