First use of surgical anesthesia. William Thomas Green Morton (1819-1868) was an American dentist. On September 30, 1846, Morton performed a painless tooth extraction after administering ether to a patient. Upon reading a newspaper account of this event, Boston surgeon Henry Jacob Bigelow arranged for a public demonstration of ether on October 16, 1846 at the operating theatre of the Massachusetts General Hospital. At this demonstration Dr. John Collins Warren painlessly removed a tumour from the neck of Edward Gilbert Abbott. News of this use of ether spread rapidly around the world.
