This Preparation has introduced to the world an entirely new era in the science of Dentistry, which is recommend ed by the Medical Profession as being the easiest, most rapid, and really effective system for the perfectly painless accomplishment of everything having reference to Surgical Den tistry. Beyond the utter impossibility of pun during the operation, the following desitrrata are obtained by the u*e of Artificial Teeth : — economy, durability, masticating power, artio ulabion, and natural appearance. Being in destructable, they nev- r change in color o decay; by their elasticity and unerring fit tney excel in oumfort from the power rendered to support useless or decayed taeth even over the most tender and sensitive gums, and thus tin; wearer speedily becomes oblivious to the fatu thai, the comforts supp ied by art and science have overcome tin defi ienee« of nature.
