Jansje Gretha (Jans) Schuiringa (Balmahuizen, July 9, 1887 - Utrecht, August 1, 1975), also known as Miss Schuiringa, was one of the first people in the Netherlands who held the title of dentist.
The work that Schuiringa carried out between 1920 and 1957 as a professor of prosthetic dentistry at the Institute of Dentistry in Utrecht, was of major significance for the development of the discipline of maxillofacial dental surgery.
Maxillofacial dental surgery, which operates on the jaw and the face, involves making prosthetics for the face and teeth.
