Whitworth’s dentition presented a short occasion to observe restoration practices that must have been in practice before his bereavement in 1825. It was distinguished for the reason that he had three dental restorations in his upper dentition. Gold stuffing in the upper-left canine and in the right second molar, and a black substance in the upper-left second molar were found. Post-medieval dental restorations are uncommon in the archaeological writing. This reflects the high-priced disposition of such medication, its resulting exclusivity, and the small number of prohibited exhumations and archaeological excavations of this era. Supplementary to this, Whitworth’s anterior upper and lower dentition displayed an tremendously atypical damage of labial dental enamel.
