Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dental Digest, Vol. 1 We feel quite sure that we have not overstated the require ments a dentist should possess. We have said he should be logi cal, as we believe a logical man who is able to reason from cause and effect is much better prepared to perform the various Opera tions successfully and with good judgment than one not pos sessed of a logical mind. We have said he should be a physician. We should regard a dentist deficient if he were not able to prescribe hygienically for his patients with as much intelligence as the aver age practitioner of medicine. Not that we wish to under esti mate the ability of the average practitioner of medicine, but we wish the dentist to have intelligence enough to understand the diseases of the mouth and the causes Of such, and also to be able to prescribe a preventive treatment in connection with the more technical processes of filling the teeth, and to do this requires a good degree of hygienic knowledge.
