Saint Apolline is the protector of dental surgeons and is invoked for toothache. Many versions of his martyrdom are circulating. Apolline or Apollonia, lived in Alexandria (Egypt) where she died in 249 during a revolt. She is believed to be 32 years old at the time. Its history was at the origin of quite a legend and since the 15th century Saint Apollina has been the subject of numerous representations. Saint Apollina has always been regarded by popular devotion as helpful against toothache, no doubt because of the first ordeal she had endured: her jaw was shattered and all her teeth were broken.
She is celebrated on February 9. Her feast day was initially scheduled for February 20, the presumed anniversary of her death, with a group of Alexandrian martyrs, then she was listed in isolation on the 9th of the same month. She is the Patron Saint of dentists and invoked to heal toothaches. Apolline was finally canonized in 1634.
