In the 18th century, false teeth were often made from a variety of materials, including human teeth, animal teeth, ivory, and wood. Wealthy individuals sometimes used teeth extracted from deceased persons or purchased from dentists. Additionally, some dentures were crafted from materials like porcelain, which began to gain popularity toward the end of the century. These early prosthetics were typically uncomfortable and required frequent adjustments.
