CAUTION TO PERSONS NEGLECT.
ING THEIR TEETH AND GUMS.
itrrasecT 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
"uses them to bleed on the most trifling occasions, and pro-
;"es the most offensive and frequently putrid breath. A
substance invariably accumulates around the necks
vi the Teeth, penetrates into the Gums, which gradually
ee*asie away, and the Teeth then become loose, and
mrop oat whole from their sockets, and it is well known tbei
the loss of Teeth arises more from this cause than any other.
On this subject a distinguished Lecturer makes the followints
iservations :see. When the disgusting effects of this accumu-
lation are considerei, it would appear impossible that any per-
Iliasion could be necessary to induce persons to obviate so great
tiluisance even on their own account : or if they are too de-
a7kti to procure their own comfort and cleanliness by employ-
.l a skilful Dentist, they surely have no right to shock the
of ethers, who possess more delcacy and propriety of
feelingsmell
than themselves. Yet, so it is; and the sight and the
-.tell are alike constantly outraged by the filthiness of some
ItsoPle, who seem to Obtrude their faces the closer in proportion
ihe disgust which they occasion."—Bell's Lectures, p. 199. n
I !Could such persons only see the horrid state of their teeth

14eath, they would not hesitate to seek immediate relief. To

,k,though they be of coral), discloses a set of teeth irregular or
elaisucoowloured. On the contrary, even homely features and a
complexion are embellished and rendered agreeable by a
11,°0d set of teeth. A mouth large and ill-formed will pass
,;onotieed, when it contains teeth beautifully white and even.
"n the other hand the effects of decay, the accumulation of
btar, the blackened and denuded fangs, and the taint of the
which is eltha common concomitant of bad teeth, will
-svar

Regular teeth, white, and free from all extraneous matter,

deficiencies of suture, in order that their teeth, if not an agree-
