ABSTRACT

Though a detailed medical history of Porfirio Díaz has yet to be uncovered, much can be learned from an interesting chronicle published by historian Juan Manuel Villalpando in what is the centenary of the death of this former Mexican president, one regarded as a tyrant dictator by those with only a limited knowledge of history, while the more informed proclaim him to be a liberal hero, based on his historical and cultural legacy. This complementary and parallel account provides a picture of what is likely to have been going on in the mouth and teeth of the president as he endured the exposed gum and the toothache that affected several of Don Porfirio’s teeth. Based on the works consulted and sources found, we cannot be certain which was the greater of Don Pofirio’s woes: the pain of defeat or the unbearable agony of a broken tooth.
