Atlanta Dds Members Tend To Have Many Benefits

By Tammie Caldwell


Dentistry has been traced back to as early as 5000 BC where it was stated that tooth worms where the cause of dental decay. Then in 2600 BC the death of Hesy-Re was described as the greatest who dealt with teeth. This is the earliest known reference of a dentist. In today's age the Atlanta DDS has improved tenfold compared to the tools that were used all those years ago.

To become a dentist one will need to compete many years of education as well at training and then residency. Deciding on the specialty can be difficult as it can either be general, paediatrics or maxillofacial surgery. In some cases training in management as well as communication will give one that extra advantage when it comes to dealing with the public.

In 100 BC a Roman medical writer wrote many articles about oral hygiene as well as new methods of holding loose teeth in place. New treatments for pain and toothache as well as jaw fractures where discussed at length. Then in 162 and 100 AD the first practise of gold crowns and bridgework was introduced.

There are six different colleges in the Atlanta area that offer dental assisting programs as well as dental hygiene. These are all within thirty two kilometers from the city center. For those students that want to become licensed will unfortunately need to look at other places as these programs are not available within the fifty mile radius. Each college will have different enrollment dates as well as fees so always check for this information before hand.

The Atlanta Technical College or ATC is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges and can award their graduates with diplomas, degrees as well as technical certificates of credit. The first class was held in January of nineteen sixty eight with only a few students enrolled. Today there are more than five thousand students.

In 1789 Nicolas Dubois de Chemant was the first to administer porcelain teeth and John Greenwood constructed the first dental foot engine. He changed his mom's foot treadle spinning wheel to become a drill. The first dentists chair was also made by Josia Flagg and was able to have adjustments made to the headrest as well as extensions to hold all the required instruments.

They have nine different graduate programs and also have an on campus housing facility. All in all there are four hundred and fifty one beds and the students are also able to enjoy a gigabyte Internet service in their residence hall. Many of their students are adult learners while only one third is below the age of twenty two.

The twentieth century bought on the first aesthetic named Novocain as well as the invention of lost wax. In 1911 the first US Army Dental corps was established and two years later the Fones Clinic opened its doors. From then on the leaps and bounds of dentistry have evolved to what it is today.
