Did you know that tooth related illnesses killed thousands in year gone by...

I've read that London during the early Victorian period and before was like running the gauntlet.

""Life expectancy has increased steadily through history. During the Roman Empire, average life expectancy at birth was a brief 22 years. By the Middle Ages it had risen to about 33 years in England, and increased to 43 years by the middle of the 19th century. In the early 1900s, life expectancies in more developed countries ranged from 35 to 55. They have climbed to about 75 years today, and continue to improve. Meanwhile, life expectancy in less developed countries has gradually climbed, rising to about 64 years in 1995."""
