CAUTION TO PERSONS NEGLECT.

RRTRACT FROM MONS. LE DRAYS “TREATISE ON LOSS OF
TEETH."

Among the various disorders of the Mouth, there is none
more destructive than Scurvy, which on first entering the Gums
causes them to bleed on the most trifling occasions, and pro-
sluices the most offensive aid frequently putrid breath. A
soft substance invariably accumulates around the necks
of' the Teeth, penetrates into the Gums, which gradually
waste away, and the Teeth thin become loose, and
drop out whole from their sockets, and it is 'well known thst
the loss of Teeth arises more from this cause than any other.
On this subject a distinguished Lecturer makes the following
observations :—" When the disgusting effects of this accumii-
ittion are contiderei, it would appear impossible that any per-
'4•ekion could be necessary to induce persons to obviate so great
tnuisance even on their own account : or if they are too (le-
ased to procure their own comfort and cleanliness by employ-
ne a skilful Dentist, they surely have no right to shock die

i4ople, who seem to obtrude their faces the closer in proportion
° Ulu disgust which they occasion."—Bell's Lectures, p. 199.

reath, th'ey would not hesitate to seek immediate relief. To

are so arranged as to restore the lace to its former youthful
