I've always wondered what people did about 300-500 years ago when they lost their teeth. Then certainly no one treated, I think as the tooth began to hurt strongly, immediately and was kicked out. The issue was only looked like the elite of those times, do so here smile kings, nobles, princes, presidents, their toothless smiles or money and in those days people could work a miracle and return the result in relative normal dentition. Judging by what I read earlier, trying to normalize the "smile" people have tried many, many centuries ago. Roughly, 700-500 centuries BC the Etruscans and Romans tried to compensate for lost teeth "dentures" are made of bone, tusks, teeth of others (not necessarily taken from living people), which was attached to the remaining teeth with gold wire. It is difficult to imagine how it looked, I think I don't and the color of their teeth and dentures was different about the selection of color of speech did not go at all.

Better than nothing, but still looks primitive and unpleasant, plus a lot of questions about how to clean the stuck food, so much enough of this is the "bridge" and what it cost is pleasure. To let obviously it can not everyone, because gold is the metal is not cheap. Yes and work for those since the complex. Who acted as prosthetics? Blacksmiths, jewelers, those who worked in the barbershops. What about the sanitation...If she was? Appeared in the 15th century dentures on a spring. Invented their dentist Ludwig 15. He was the first who attempted to adjust the teeth color. What did those who didn't have dentures do? Elizabeth the first, for example, filled the gaps with pieces of cloth when appearing in public. Tried to fix dentures and silk thread, but only if their teeth have been enough. The teeth were made from animal bones already. It is said that George Washington's prosthesis was based on a Hippo bone, and it was placed human teeth. In 1774 was finally developed the first dentures made of porcelain! Further, since the 19th century prosthetics developed rapidly. Now per day can easily fabricate and install removable prosthesis would be the desired amount and the teeth will restore so that is not distinguishable from the native.
