Summary

Introduction

For almost two hundred years dentistry has gone through many changes. Some of the changes have been good, and some of the good changes, have been dismissed as bad. Billings noted that the focus of infection usually occurred in the head, and in teeth that had excessive dental work. Dr Edwin Rosenow, followed Billings, and continued researching the Focal Infection Theory, saying that root canal procedures should cease [2].
