title: The life of Henry Jeanneret (1802-1886). Pioneer Australian dentist. With an account of his colonial service and scientific contributions in Australia.
abstract: Henry Jeanneret was a pioneer Australian dentist, perhaps the first in this country to promote the discipline of dentistry as distinct from medicine and general surgery. This profile describes his early life and training, his emigration to Australia, his clinical practice in Sydney and in Van Diemen's Land, and his contributions to natural history, particularly in the field of botany.
