So far we have found more than 1000 human teeth and a coin worth $ 3000 through our archaeological investigations in the CBD pic.twitter.com/54e2Zc3fvp Workers excavating a subway line in Melbourne, Australia, recently uncovered a gruesome surprise – more than 1,000 human teeth, many of them riddled with enormous cavities. There was no suspicion of foul play; the teeth had been discarded by a dentist – a man named J.J. Forster who practiced at the turn of the 20th century – and several other nearby dentists on the same block, after the teeth were yanked from the gums of their owners, according to Melbourne news site The Age .

The effect of bitewing radiography on estimates of dental caries experience among children differs according to their disease experience
ConclusionsTaking bitewing radiographs in young children is not without challenges or risks, and it must be undertaken with these in mind. Diagnostic yields from bitewing radiographs are greater for children with greater caries experience. The findings of this study further support the need to consider using bitewing radiographs in young children to enhance the management of lesions not detected by a simple visual examination alone.
