The silence OF the classics certainly
seems 20 indicate that the Greeks and
Romans suffered very little from their
teeth. Words for toothnchc and for
tooth extracting instruments can. a.
deed. be found IN the Greek and Latin
dictionaries. but the authors quoted
for them are generally late and al.
ways uninterestlng. We can hardly
believe that II toothache had been
common in Athens Aristophanes would
have made no Jokes about H. But n
classical scholar may pretty safely be
dened 20 cite single Greek or Latin
passage about II. Even Lucreuus,
when he gets on the subject OF teeth
In n passage where reference 10
toothache might be expected, merely
refers 10 the Jar given 10 the teeth by
