Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lecture-Notes on Chemistry for Dental Students: Including Dental Chemistry of Alloys, Amalgams, Etc;, Such Portions of Organic and Physiological Chemistry as Have Practical Bearing on the Subject of Dentistry an Inorganic Qualitative Analysis With Specially Adapted Blowpipe and Microscopical Tests, And The arrangement of this book follows rather closely the lecture course in Dental Chemistry as given by the author at the Harvard Dental School. It has been the aim of these lectures to give the student, as concisely as possible, such portions of the various branches of chemistry as are most likely to be of value in practical work. Simplicity of manipulation has in some cases been considered of greater practical value than extreme accuracy, especially in the chapter on Quantitative Analysis, the volumetric processes being given, as a rule, rather than the more exact but more difficult gravimetric methods. The usual equipment of a dental laboratory has been borne in mind, and considerable prominence given to the simpler analytical tests made in the dry way by means of few reagents. Recent text-books and current literature have been very generally consulted. New tests have been verified so far as possible - often modified - before being recommended to the student. The U. S. Dispensatory and the Newer Materia Medica, as given in the Druggists' Circular, have been drawn upon in the sections on Local Anæsthetics and Hall's and Essig's Chemistries in the section on Alloys and Amalgams. A chapter on Organic Chemistry has been introduced, designed to furnish an understanding of this branch of chemical science, which will enable the student to better comprehend the physiological chemistry which follows.
