title: [History of the Dental (Stomatologic) Clinic through 1920 (József Arkövy)].
abstract: The Dental Clinic of the Budapest University was established 100 years ago. The prehistory and the history of the first three decades of the clinic is closely attached to the course of life of Professor József Arkövy (1952 to 1922). Arkövy acquired a medical and dental master certificate in 1876. Between 1881 and 1890 he directs a private dental clinic. This became the basis of the University Dental Clinic opened in 1890 which disposed of a treating hall with 10 dental chairs, a narcosis chamber and a class room. In 1908, the clinic moves into a new building planned for such purpose and its name becomes Clinic of Stomatology. In the new clinic the departments of surgery, conserving dentistry and prosthetic dentistry became separated and there was a bedpatient department as well. Arkövy retired in 1920.
