THE PATENT PNEUMATIC PALATE,
for the Constructionof Artificial Teeth.—Messrs. MOGGRIDGE
and DAVIS, Surgeou•Dentists to the Royal Family, 19, Old
Burlington-street, Bond•street, Patentees of the self-sustaining
principle of fixing Artificial Teeth. The PNEUMATIC
PALATE has excited the greatest admiration of the most emi-
nent physicians and surgeons of England and the prinzipal
cities of the Continent, who constantly favour them with their
distinguished recommendations, and who consider their system
to be greatly superior to any in use, as by it the greatest possible
firmness and security in the mouth is attained, and the patient
enabled to properly perform the important operation of mastica-
tion, which is most essential to health. It also renders the ar-
ticulation clear and distinct, and the unpleasant whistling so
long complained of impossible.--This to public sneakers is in•
valuable.
