Pierre Fauchard, a French surgeon and the “Father of Dentistry”, made many discoveries and contributions to dentistry, including:

  • Dental fillings: Fauchard was the first to introduce dental fillings to treat cavities. He suggested using amalgams like gold, tin, and lead.
  • Dental prostheses: Fauchard pioneered dental prostheses, including dental braces and carved blocks of ivory or bone. He also invented new designs for obturators.
  • Tooth decay research: Fauchard discovered that acids from sugar were responsible for tooth decay. He also argued that kids’ teeth fall out and are replaced.
  • Dental reference: Fauchard published The Surgeon Dentist, a Treatise on Teeth in 1723, which became the definitive dental reference for 100 years. The book included illustrations and surgical appliances and instruments, and many of its principles are still followed today.
  • Dental term: Fauchard defined the term “surgeon dentist”.
  • Dental Practice Innovations: Fauchard also advocated for proper patient positioning and suggested using a light during dental procedures.

Fauchard’s work inspired a new generation of dentists and permanently changed the practice of dentistry.
