Facsimile Reprint of Garrison-Morton 3689.2 (1st ed., 1908, published by Medico-Dental Publishing Co., Chicago): 'Black established a system of cavity preparation from which modern techniques have been derived. He constructed a 'gnathodynamometer' with which the pressure exerted on the human tooth and therefore on the filling material could be measured. Through experimentation he established an ideal metal mixture which was stable and did not discolour. Publication of his results led to standardization of the alloys.' Frontispiece, xi, 319 pp; 187 illus.; xvi, 403 pp; 437 illus. Full leather, all edges gilt. A Near Fine set.
