Weinstein, Jules

Jules Weinstein, D.D.S., graduated from the New York College of Dentistry (later the New York University College of Dentistry) in 1924. Motivated by his studies of hypnosis during the 1930s and a strong belief that hypnosis would help to improve the experience of dental patients, Weinstein attempted to establish a place for hypnosis in the daily practice of dentistry. He lectured at New York University in the early 1950s on the application of hypnosis to dentistry.

During his thirty-year career at Harlem Hospital, he served as a member of the N.Y.C. Dental Society (First District), the Society for Clinical and Experimental Hypnosis, and the New York Academy of Sciences, as well as an advisor and founding member of the American Hypnodontic Society.
