AUTION TO PERSONS NEGLECT
ING THEIR TEETH AND GUMS.
arrRACT FROM MONS. LE DRAY'S "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-
duces the most offensive and 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 then become loose, and
drop out whole from their sockets, and it is well known ths,
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 accumu-
lation are conPidereol., it would appear impossible that any per-
suasion could be necessary to induce persons to obviate so great
a nuisance even on their own account : or if they are too de-
based to procure their own comfort and cleanliness by employ-
•og a skilful Dentist, they surely have no right to shock the
seeses of others, who possess more delicacy and propriety of
f'''ling than themselves. Yet, so it is ; and the sight and the
smell are alike constantly outraged by the filthiness of some
People, who seem to obtrude their faces the closer in proportion
to the disgust which they occasion."—Bell's Lectures, p. 199.
Could such persons only see the horrid state of their teeth
and gums, or for a moment catch the odour of their own
breath, they would not hesitate to seek immediate relief. To
trofessional men, shop-keepers, and tradesmen generally, who
have much intercourse with the refined and fashionable world,
a good state of the mouth must be of the greatest importance
Besides, is not an offensive breath, which in nineteen cases out
of twenty proceeds from the bad state of the teeth and gums,
eery much calculated to prevent the blessing of matrimony?
And how often, from inadvertence or neglect, is the happiness
"If thq Imarriage state most grievously intorupted by the same
cause

The inconveniencies attending the Loss of Teeth are too
wen known to require comment, but to those who have not ex-
perienced the comfort of Artificial Teeth, Monsieur Le Dray
la desirous of showing some of the difficulties more or less en •
...lured by every individual without them. When the Teeth are
lost, it is impossible to make use of slid food ; and if the
stomach is then loaded with pieces without being masticated,
the patient 13 exposed to the most distressing inAigestions, the
stomach loses its power of contraction, and becomes weak in
proportion as it no longer digests ; besides, when the Teeth
ere
gene, a great vacuum is left in the mouth, which occasions
every
muscle in the face to be distorted, and the whole features
are
To insist
drawn from their original position.
f insist on the importance of the teeth, whether in regard
to the functions of digestion and articulation, to which they
are so essential, or to personal appearance, in which they are
an much concerned, must appear a waste of words, were it not
obvious that there are many persons who never give themselves
the trouble to think upon the subject ; who seem scarcely
aware that they possess teeth at all, while their gross and cul-
Ptble negligence renders tha fact too apparent to their friends
odd associates.
Alastification is the first process of digestion, and unless it
be duly performed, the subsequent processes can never go on
reperiy.
So essential is this preparatory process, that the neglect of it
is sufficient to occasion indigestion, a disordered stomach, ner-
vous debility, depression of spirits, the skin becomes rotrsh and
tinged of a lead colour, the eyes lose their brilliancy, the lips
their vermillion hue, and, in a word, it is no uncommon thing
for the whole body to receive such a shock as to cause re-
-I.axation of the whole system, which produces an irritable
le_ leper, quite foreign to the natural disposition, whereby
Tre become an annoyance te our friends, and a burthen
le ourselves. But I need not dwell upon the num-
berless, concomitant evils which may thus owe their
origin to imperfect mastication. It is sufficient to
.now that Monsieur Le Dray's improvements will be
found to be many years in advance of any system now in Eu-
"Pe, and that artificial teeth ate brought to such perfection, at
LeEstablishment, No. 60, Newman-street, Oxford -street, as
l!i',perform this function in a manner equal in every respect to
the; Natural teeth, and may be used with every comfort. They

:ttat, co erecting all deformities of the mouth, and entirely doing
4vaY wits the old system of springs, clasps, and wires.

Pre-eminent. No regularity of features, no brilliancy, of urn-
Plexion, no sparkling eyes, or silken braids of jetty hair can
render that lady beautiful, who when she opens her lips
(though they be of coral), discloses a set of teeth irregular or
discoloured. On the contrary, even homely features and a
sallow complexion are embellished aid rendered agreeable by a
good set of teeth. A mouth largo and ill-formed will pass
unnoticed, when it contains teeth beautifully white and even.
On the other hand the effects of decay, the accumulation of
tartar, the blackened and denuded fangs, and the taint of the
breath, which is a common concomitant of bad teeth, will
invariably prove disgusting and loathsome.
Regular teeth, white, and free from all extraneous matter,
ire an ornament equally attractive in either sex Those per-
eons who do not eossess this natural advantage, should en-
deavour, by extreme care and cleantiness, and a timely resort
t• artificial led, to remedy the imperfections, and supply the
deAciencies of nature, in order that their teeth, if not an agree-
able object, may be prevented, as far as possible, from hecomini
a:repu!sive one.
Monsieur LE DRAY, Surgeon-Dentist, 60, Newman-street,
Oxford-street, respectfully acquaints the Nobility, Gentry,
Clergy, and the inhabitants of London and its vicinity, that he
continues to restore Decayed Teeth with his celebrated Mine-
ral Marmoratum, so universally recommended by the Faculty
of England, France, and throughout the Continent, which
substance he is sole inventor and possessor of. The ope-
ration is performed without the le Ist pain ; it is placed into
:the cavity in an almost liquid state, and in a few seconds
nerdens into enamel, preventing and curing the Tooth Ache,
arrosting all further progress of decay, allaying in one minute
the roost excruciating pain, and rendering the operation of ex-
tractimi unnecessary. He also fastens loose Teeth, particularly

SECRETARY—John T. Tidd, Esq.
The beneficial effects arising from the construction of Docks
has been amply proved by those already made in the port of
London, where the vessel is placed in perfect security, and the
property of the merchant is amply protected. The application
of steam to merchant vessels has established a new class of
shipping recpirine peculiar accommodation, such as cannot be
obtained in the existing Docks. The time appears therefore
to have arrived, when the great commercial interests of this
port and city should be provided with a Dock for the ocean-
going steam ships which frequent the Thames ; and besides
this, the interests of humanity ask for the speedy institution of
such measures as shall prevent the awfully numerous accidents
to life and property incidental upon the navigation of large
steamers in the crowded parts of the river between Deptford
and London-bridge.
One opinion only can exist as to the necessity and importance
of a Steam Dock in the Port of London; and •it is matter of ;
surprise, that the Metropolitsn Port should not have preceded
in a matter of such pressing necessity, the other great Ports of
the Kingdom, Liverpool, Bristol, and Hull, in constructing
Steam Docks.
To accomplish the result, the present undertaking has been
projected ; which, besides the great and valuable objects it has
in view, offers the prospect of a fair dividend upon the outlay to
proprietors.
To satisfy the public of the secure footing upon which the
undertaking is established, it is only necessary to state that ar-
rangements have been made between the Company and the
Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, by which the Public
Service will be greatly benefited in the establishment of this
Dock, and whereby the Company will derive such advantages
as must necessarily have the effect of securing its prosperity ;
the particulars of which may be veen at the Office of the Com-
pany, by application to the Directors, or Secretary.
The Commissioners appointed by their Lordships to examine
and report upon the undertaking, were Capt. Shirreff, II N.,
Captain Superintendent of her Majesty's Dock and Victualling
Yards at Deptford ; Capt. Beaufort, R.N., Hydrographer to
the Board ; and Capt. Brandreth, R.E., Civil Engineer to the
Admiralty.
According to these arrangements the works are to be pro-
ceeded with, and finished with all possible dispatch, agreeably
to Plans adopted by, and deposited with, the Board, who have
appointed Captain Brandreth, R.E., to inspect the Works
during their progress ; and the line of frontage of the proposed
Dock is to be subject to the approval of Captain Beaufort,
R. N., Hydrographer to the Admiralty.
Upon a careful examination of the different sites on either
side of the river Thames, suited to the purpose of a dock of this
description, there is not one which offers such excellent qualifi-
cations as that situate between her Majesty's Dock-yard and
Deptford Creek. These advantages are,—the depth of water
to be obtained close in shore,*—the proximity of the various
railways, south of the Thames, for the conveyance of goods
and passengers,—and the low value of the property necessary to
be taken.
These advantages will also be increased by the depth of water
at the Lock Entrance and Frontage of the proposed Dock. The
Right Honourable the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty
having permitted to be adopted an arc founded on a radius of
4,500 feet, commeneing at the Royal Dock-yard, and terminat-
ing at the Greenwich Pier, thus giving an extension of
wharfage into the River, which will tend greatly to improve the
navigation of that part of the Thames.
Amongst the advantages to be derived by the Steam Ship
Owner, may be enumerated the saving of wear and tear of en-
gines—of fuel—of freedom from risk of collision, and conse-
quent expensive results—safety of the vessel—facility for in-
spection after long voyages—convenience for fit ing and refitting
—an abundant supply of filtered water alpays at command—
together with a depot of coals within the Dock.
A careful and detailed estimate has been made, and the same
is to be approved by the Engineer of the Admiralty before the
works are commenced.
It will not be unimportant to know that the Dock will con-
tain quay-room for vessels to lay alongside, of about 7,476 feet,
and capacity of water-room equal to the accommodation of 100
steamers, besides craft at one and the same time, with ample
space for loading and unloading, and landing and embarking
passengers.
The affairs of the Company will be conducted by a Board of
Directors, consisting of not less than eight, nor more than eigh-
teen, under a Deed of Settlement, to be approved of by the
Counsel of the Company on behalf of all parties, and by an Act
of Parliament, so soon as the same c.tn be obtained, to contain
all such clauses and conditions as may by such Counsel be
deemed necessary and_ available for the government of the
Company, and the limitation of the Subscribers' responsibility.
:Ipplication to subscribe for Stock, may be made to the Se-
cretary, post paid.
A deposit of 10 per cent. to be paid upon subscribing, and
no furrier call will be required for six months.
Interest at the rate of 4 per cent. per annum will be allowed
upon a limited number of subscr ptions for 100/. Stock paid in
full at the time of subscribing—to be received half-yearly until
the Dock is completed, when the profits will be divided amongst
the Proprietors.

PUBLIC NOTIFICATION.
ESSRS. SLOAN and CO., Members of"
the Royal College of Surgeons, 4, ARGYLL-PLACE,
:{LGENT-STREET. and 2t4, IRONMONGER-LANE,
i.:IIEAPSIDE, may be consulted from Eight o'Clock in the
Morning until Ten at Night, on every variety and stage of
'syphilis, with that delicacy and secresy they have hitherto ob-
served. The treatment. they pursue will not subject any patient
to confider/lent or hindrance from business. Cases of an ex-
treme nature they eradicate in eight or ten days, or if slight or
recent in two or three, without the indiscriminate use •f mer-
cury, and at a moderate expense. Generative debility,
Gonorrhoea, and Strictures of the Urethra, unhappily so preva-
lent, are treated upon these unerring principles which have in-
sured to Messrs. Sloan and Co. so large a share of public pa-
tronage for nearly thirty years in London, and which it will be
their future exertion to maintain.

Letters, containing an enclosure, will be answered by return
and patients, Lowever distant, will be corresponded with until
recovered.
