Royal operators for the teeth: the Hemets.
The influence of the Huguenots upon the practice of dentistry in England has received so little attention that their contribution has been largely overlooked, even though the competence of one particular family, the Hemets, led to royal appointments for three successive generations. This paper seeks to begin to redress the balance by chronicling some of the activities of this family.
