[QUOTE="Clear Precision Dental, post: 12326, member: 499"] This is waaaayy too funny !!! Dental appliances made by Dr. John Greenwood for George Washington are now making a full circle!! [even though they were not made of wood... the incorrect rumor of wood dental appliance, and the killer name of going green with wood.....Greenwood makes me laugh!] From Wikipedia: "Dr. John Greenwood (1760-1819) was George Washington's personal dentist and was responsible for designing Washington's famous dentures, which were not wood but carved from hippopotamus tusk. He invented the first known "dental foot engine" in 1790.[1][2] He was the son of Isaac Greenwood, the first native-born American dentist. A letter from John Greenwood to Lt. General George Washington on his denture charges, dated 1799, is in the A.D. Black History of Dentistry Collection at Northwestern University." [/QUOTE]
