Ivo Miše – in memoriam

Goran Knežević ; Retired professor of oral surgery, School of Dental Medicine, University of Zagreb, Zagreb, Croatia

Abstract

On the occasion of the 30th anniversary of Ivo Miše’s passing away, I consider it my duty to look back on the life path of my teacher, a man who has made his mark on the important times of birth and development of the School of Dental Medicine, University of Zagreb. As a dental practitioner (without university diploma), and later as a doctor of dental medicine, he recognized the importance of oral surgery, introduced it as a specialist field and defined its boundaries that, according to his views, largely crossed over the realm of dentoalveolar surgery. He published many papers and left many unpublished; these are the forgotten manuscripts which enabled his heirs to publish the first comprehensive textbook of oral surgery in Croatia that was used in all the dental schools of former Yugoslavia.
