| Summary | "Extraction of the Teeth" by J. F. Colyer is a comprehensive guide on dental surgery written in the late 19th century. The text focuses on the principles, techniques, and instruments involved in the extraction of teeth, reflecting the evolving practices in dentistry during this period. Colyer, a dental surgeon and lecturer, highlights modern methods and considerations to minimize unnecessary tooth extractions and promote conservative dental treatments. The opening of the book lays the groundwork for understanding tooth extraction, emphasizing the importance of diagnosing when extraction is truly necessary versus when conservative treatments could be pursued. It details the general principles associated with the procedure, describing the need for careful examination of the tooth prior to removal and the tools involved, such as forceps and elevators. Colyer notes that extractions should be approached with caution, particularly in cases where a tooth is severely decayed or misaligned, thus establishing the critical importance of skill and knowledge in modern dental practice.
