["Recherche de la vraye anathomie des dents, nature et propriété d'icelles", the first French dentistry book by the surgeon from Rouergue, Urbain Hémard (Benoist Rigaud, Lyon, 1582].

Recherche sur la vraye anathomie des dents, nature & propriété d'icelles (1582) is the last dental book of the 16th century and the first in France. The part borrowed from Libellus de dentibus by Bartolommeo Eustachio is not the most interesting part of the book; the better part is when Hémard tells personal experiences with his picturesque words, showing violent situations of care at this epoch.
