John Mankey Riggs
John Mankey Riggs (October 25, 1811 – November 11, 1885)〔While ''Carranza's Clinical Periodontology'' provides a middle initial of "M.", Merriam-Webster's Medical Desk Dictionary, 2002. page 721 provides a middle name of "Mankey". The dictionary, however, provides only years of birth and death (1810-1885), while ''Carranza's'' provides dates, albeit with a different year of birth.〕〔(Second source with dates as provided by ''Carranza's'' )〕 was the leading authority on periodontal disease and its treatment in the United States, to the point that periodontal disease was known as "Riggs' disease."〔Shklar, G; Carranza, FA: The Historical Background of Periodontology. In Newman, MG; Takei, HH; Carrana FA, editors: ''Carranza’s Clinical Periodontology'', 9th Edition. Philadelphia: W.B. Saunders Company, 2002. page 7.〕
==Biography==
Riggs was born in Seymour, Connecticut and graduated from the Baltimore College of Dental Surgery in 1854.
He practiced dentistry in Hartford, and was seemingly the first individual to limit his practice to periodontics; he is thus considered to be the first specialist in the field.〔
Riggs was an associate of Horace Wells, and was the first surgeon to operate with a patient under anesthesia by extracting Wells' tooth in 1844 while he was under the influence of nitrous oxide.〔
