Dentistry in Italy in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries - an introduction to research.
In the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries the conditions of dental practice are well enough clear. Even in this period the profession continued to be practiced mostly by empirics whose training consisted of an apprenticeship carried out for varying lengths of time under some itinerant practitioner. Nevertheless in the late eighteenth century, resident dentists with stable living quarters began to appear in ever-increasing number. In this work the author gives examples of several events and advertisements who prove the just exposed assertions.

[Diffusion/spreading of malaria in the Apuo-Lunensis region (northwest of Tuscany)].
Evidence of malaria fevers in the antiquity may be found in the writings of Herodotus (regarding the Nilo Valley) or in Latin authors (regarding the south land of Rome); successive reclaiming of lands by the Roman Empire diminished the incidence of malaria, but in the medieval time the absence of care regarding drainage of swampi plains caused the outbreak of the disease. In the XIX century lands were claimed, but very slowly for example in the Apuo-Lunensis region, so that experts of public health were often consulted by local governments. District physicians affirmed the origin of malaria from the local environment, and the local Governor De Volo drained the land about the Magliano river by filling of marshes, malaria was strongly reduced, coming at the end of the century for few years due to breaking of banks of the Frigido river.
