Abstract
ABSTRACT The Viennese dentist Frank Everett was a pioneer of periodontology. He received numerous honours and shaped the teaching of generations of dentists. Despite his professional significance, Everett’s life has hardly been investigated. Few know that he was persecuted by the Nazis and had to start over in the USA. The article reveals the circumstances of his disenfranchisement in the Third Reich and argues out that his success in the States was based on a combination of personal characteristics, favourable conditions in the Chicago university landscape and the nimbus of the Jewish ‘Vienna School’ of oral pathology.
