R. HOWARD, Surgeon-Dentist, 52, Fleet-
street, has introduced an entirely new description of A RTI-
FICIAL TEETH, fixed without springs, wires, or ligatures. They so
Perfectly resemble the natural teeth as not to be distinguished from
the original by the closest observer; they will never change colour or
decay, and will be found very superior to any tee h ever before used.
This method does not require the extraction of roots, or any painrul
Operation, and will support and preserve teeth that are loose, and is
Ituaranteed to restore articulation and mastication. Decayed teeth
rendered sound and useful in mastication.-52, Fleet-street. At
home Prom ten till five.
