Irving Glickman (January 17, 1914 – October 2, 1972) was an American clinical researcher described as "the father of periodontology"[1] and an author. He was one of the first to classify furcation defects and the role of occlusal trauma on periodontal disease.[2]
Career[edit]
In 1941, Glickman joined the Tufts University faculty[1] and became chair of the Department of Periodontology in 1948.[1]
In the 1950s, Glickman developed the bone factor concept about the factors that determine the severity of periodontal destruction,[3] and developed a classification system for furcation involvement[4]
In 1965, Glickman proposed a theory involving the relation of occlusal trauma to periodontal disease which led to further research in animal models.[5]
Personal life and death[edit]
In 1954, Glickman married his student, Violeta Arboleda. Violeta had five sisters including Esmeralda, and Mireya. Glickman and Arboleda had a son, Alan, and a daughter, Denise.[6]
Legacy[edit]
In January 2012, Tufts University School of Dental Medicine dedicated the periodontology library to Glickman, naming it in his honor.[1]
Selected works[edit]
- Clinical Periodontology [1] (originally published as Glickman's Clinical Periodontology, the Fifth Edition was dedicated to his memory.[7] The book continued to be published under the editorship of Fermin A. Carranza, and the title changed to Carranza's Clinical Periodontology[8] )
