Dreaded Toothaches have hurt us as a species
starting in homo sapiens'
But...thankfully, we have...
...Modern
...Dentistry!
And one can theoretically go
from this...
World Dental History Month is seen as a time
to have fun and
and what we have done
as a Profession.
And there are many parts and
thankfully,
there are many People who make our
'Morphing Enterprise' work.
But this year, 2024,
we must do more!
benefit from us and what we can do.
But remember...by doing so, we, as professionals,
actively make this world a better place
and
we can get more good amounts of
'possible Karma credits' in
Our Lives now...and...
in the Afterlife!
This April, our Third Year,
We celebrate...and yes...even Dance...
to the Foundational History of the World’s Dental Profession,
and to the Massive Opportunities Ahead for Us and the People We serve!
We are doing 'The Slide'
for all of the
We are also giving 'Big Salutes' to our
Dental Products
Manufacturers!
for the Dental Deans
and all the other
Administrators.
The 'Flossing
Dances'
are performed for the
Phenomenal Dental Resource
Libraries!
for the
Researchers that concoct the Chemistry of our products!
the Dental Museums!
And we are doing the
'Bite the Dentist Back' Dance
for all of the
Indispensable Patients Worldwide that we treat
with our Minds, our Hearts, and our Hands!
So we definitely give thanks for the strides made in our Dental Histories
and we especially look forward,
with delight,
to envision, design, and piece together our
'Moldable and Winning' Futures!

World Dental History Month.
World Dental History Month is
almost here!
This is our Second Year celebrating the special month of April
to count the blessings of our Legacies, and to ‘raise the Bar higher’ for what’s ahead!
And we
Celebrate openly!
For sure, the Arts, the Sciences, and the Futures of Dentistry are looking even more full of
Promise and Prominence!
Challenged with simply reducing pain and suffering during Times Long Ago, our Profession
has evolved, and we have developed the technology-rich solutions
which can replenish Function,
highlight Aesthetics,
and predictably Prevent many problems in our Patients of the World.
Our Global Successes can only continue through the honorable collaboration of Dental Schools,
the many Deans, Professors,
Instructors, and Students,
Dental Materials Research Scientists
(Chemistry is everything!),
the whole teams of all of the Practicing Clinicians,
the Dental Associations
of the World’s
Countries, the crucial Dental Continuing Education
Industry, the many indispensable Dental Supply Companies,
and especially the Museums,
which catalogue, classify, and curate
tangible evidence of past attempts to advance
the restoring of Mouth Functions
and to present serious representation
and reenactments of our Ancient and
Dramatic Predecessors!
But more than half of the World’s almost 8 billion people don’t receive any dental care, with many
millions suffering from toothaches on
any given day!
However, our Profession has risen to the occasion before, and we shall find the Will, through both Policy and Manpower, to
correct this disparity of Care!

World Dental History Month,

Dreaded Toothaches have hurt us as a species starting in homo sapiens' early times and continue to pester us even in today's daily...
