Tooth Book Ornament Vintage Dentistry Dental Molar Clay Mini Book Framed Home Wall Decoration Trim

We'd all rather visit a bookshop than a dentist. Before the modern age of dentistry, oral issues such as toothaches, abscesses, and rotten teeth were treated in various ways including using rudimentary drills, extraction, arsenic, acupuncture, bloodletting, and artificial replacements. The only common element to treatment was excruciating pain. From oral anatomy to early dental instruments to artificial teeth to early uses of anesthesia, the Tooth Book provides a fascinating insight into the structure and function of the mouth, its illnesses and prevention. Decorate with books? Why not? A Book Beads adaptation of a first edition hardcover, The Tooth Book celebrates the history of dentistry and its contributions in training legions of dentists over the centuries. Rendered in clay, painted, burnished, fired and glazed, these tiny book baubles serve as a timeless memento of books that are forever associated with Christmas. Our exclusive laser cut frame is made from 3 mm thick plywood and is both sturdy and delicate. HANDMADE IN THE USA: when you invest in Book Beads, you start a collection with an artist who is a product of generations of book lovers and craftsmen dedicated to producing the finest sculpted miniature books for you.
