title: German dental literature around 1800.
abstract: The extent of material on dentistry published in Germany around this period is shown in this chapter and its associated bibliography of some 134 works (Appendix 5). However, some doubt is expressed as to the extent to which the information in these texts was disseminated to the predominantly 'craftsmen' of dentistry who would obtain their knowledge from a more oral and practical tradition, compared with the more academic tradition of the physicians and surgeons who also provided some of the dental treatment.
