EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph from the 19th century showcases an intriguing advertisement for Pikes Toothache Drops, a dental medicine that promises to save your teeth. The image features a diverse group of individuals, including a female dentist and her male patient, engaging in what appears to be a tooth extraction procedure. The composition exudes an old-world charm with its detailed engraving and vintage aesthetic. The elderly man sits anxiously on the dentist's chair while the skilled female practitioner carefully attends to his toothache using Pikes Toothache Drops. This scene not only highlights the importance of oral health but also emphasizes the effectiveness of this particular product. The advertisement is attributed to C. N. Crittenton, proprietor of New York-based company Crittenton & Co. , known for their medical products during that era. It serves as a testament to American innovation in dentistry and medical advancements at the time. Displayed proudly in the collection of the New-York Historical Society, this lithograph offers us a glimpse into early advertising techniques and societal perceptions surrounding dental care in 19th-century America. Its intricate details and historical significance make it an invaluable piece within our cultural heritage.
