This place was absolutely spectacular! You didn't realize that something so amazing and historically significant is in your back yard. Go for a really informative and historical tour from the docent who's amazing as well! GIve yourself about an hour - due to the wealth of dental information you'll receive! They're only open on weekends with limited hours, so check that before going (I believe they offer tours by appointment as well). Well worth a stop!
It has been a number of years since I last visited, but I recall being amazed at the treadle-powered dentist drills that used the same pulley system used until relatively recently to drive the drill bit.
Call before visiting to arrange a visit.
The docent shared a plethora of information with us. Four teens and three adults in our group learned about the history of dental care and how Ohio shares in this history.
This should be a stop for anyone going through Bainbridge.
