Sažetak

A brief historical review based on detailed reference literature reports provides insight into the development of dentistry as a profession in Dubrovnik. The oldest information about barbers-surgeons in Croatia have been found in Dubrovnik, where they worked as city servants. Among the first preserved contracts are those dating from 1374, whereas the first brotherhood, known as uFraternitas barbirorum", was established in 1452 with the object of protecting the interests of its members and contributing to the reputation of the profession. In 1777 dental care, in terms of medical services, become a separate branch of with a general health care, and its leadership was assigned to the first dental surgeons with a formal dental education in Dubrovnik and Dalmatia, namely to Gaetano Pierini in 1788 and later Giovanni Battista Cortesio, who held his terms of office until the fall of the Republic in 1808. The first legal act concerning all activities of the profession was issued in 1848. In the second half of the 19th century several graduate dental surgeons were active in Dubrovnik: Frano Dabrović (1843-1897), Niko Gjivović (1866-1933), Ivo Stijepović- Dabrović (1867-1934), and Frano Stijepović-Dabrović (1900-1954). In 1937 the Dubrovnik Health Centre was built and many regional health care services were established, laying foundations for the present- day organisation of dental services which today employ more than thirty general practitioners of dentistry and specialists in many dental branches.
