Title: Opinion
Author(s): L. Davies

Abstract: 

Anaesthetics in dentistry commenced after 1850 and women were often used to chaperone female patients. This was predominantly the job of the wives and daughters of dentists and included chairside duties. Over time this developed into a role for male 'dental assistants' and served as an apprenticeship, with such individuals often progressing to become dentists.
