BOURDET [Etienne]. Soins faciles pour la propret� de la bouche, et pour la conservation des dents. Paris, H�rissant, 1759.16mo. Title + 131 + (5)pp. Contemporary marbled calf, gilt; neatly rebacked preserving original spine. First edition of a pocket manual on oral hygiene for the layman by Etienne Bourdet (1722-89), a pupil of Fauchard, who was dentist to Louis XV of France. In his introduction the author discusses the importance of the teeth both as embellishments to physical appearance and as cutting tools essential to life. He also stresses the need for oral hygiene in order to prevent infection of the bloodstream by the swallowing of impure saliva. The work is divided into sections on keeping the mouth healthy, on preventing damage to the teeth, and on repairing damage caused by neglect or accident. For toothache Bourdet prescribes luxation, through which the dental nerve was disrupted at the root. There are also observations on false teeth, and advice to parents and to others bringing up children. Part of the material is drawn from Bourdet's Recherches sur toutes les parties de l'Art du Dentiste published in Paris in 1757. Blake, p 61; Crowley 785; Hoffmann-Axthelm 211-214. Reynolds 4694; Waller 10579; Weinberger 316-317; Wellcome II, p 213; Guerini 309 & 310-311. Bestandsnummer des Verk�ufers 1062
