George Washington suffered from poor oral health most of his life. His dental problems began in his early twenties, when he was elected at the age of fifty-seven in 1789 he only had one real tooth remaining. The reasons were general bad health, small pox, the use of abrasive dentifrices and the poor level of dentistry during his time. It is however untrue that he had wooden teeth.
