Description
Colorized photo from 1917
Original Title: Dental work in Hospital, Hood Rubber. Co., Cambridge Ma
Location: Cambridge, Massachusetts
Looks like this poor chap had his incisors knocked out - (his two front teeth). It must have been interesting in those days to get dental work done. That drill is electric, but everything else is manual.
Can you imagine how many other people used that spittoon before you? I'm betting it wasn't washed recently either. I'm glad today we have modern dental toilets, so we don't have to look inside and see stuff in there.
