Reply:The ADA link will give you more info than you ever need. Basically two to three generations ago had similar care to today except everything was gold crowns or amalgam fillings. Dentists drills were foot operated so much slower and although they had Novocaine they didn't always use it. If you go back 4 or 5 generations that's when things really change.
