CAUTION TO PER SONS NEGLECT
ING THEIR TEETH AND GUMS.
=TRACT F.R.031 MONS. LE DRAY ‘. 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.
eauses them to bleed on the most trifling occasions, and pro-
dutsea—the most offensive and frequently putrid breath. A
soft substance invariably accumultfes around the necks
-off 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 tbs.,
the loss of Teeth arises more from this cause than any other.
On this subject a distinguished Lecturer makes the following
esbeei vations :—" When the disgusting effects of this accumu-
lation are considera, 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-
tog a skilful Dentist, they surely have no right to shock the
senses of ethers, who possess more delicacy and propriety of
'feeling 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 face, the closer in proportion
to the disgust which they occasion."--Bell's Lectures, p. 199.
1 ICould such persons only see the horrid rtate 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
professional men, shop-keepers, and tratlesmen 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 eq offensive breath, which in nineteen cases out
of twenty proceeds from the bad state of the teeth and gums,
very much calculated to prevent the blessing of matrimony ?
And how often, from inadvertence or neglect, is the happiness
of the ,:marriage state most grievously interupted by the same
cause'
The inconvenieneies attending the Loss of Teeth are too
well known to require comment. but to those who have not ex-
perienced the comfort of Artificial Teeth, Monsieur Le Dray
as desirous of showing some of the difficulties more or less en.
dared by every individual without them. When the Teeth are
lost, it is impossible to make use of solid food ; and if the
stomach is then loaded with pieces without being masticated,
the patient is exposed to the most distressing insligestions, the
stomach loses its power of contraction, and becomes weak it
proportion as it no longer digests ; besides, when the Teeth
are gone, a great vacuum left in the mouth, which occasions
every muscle in the face to be distorted, and the whole features
are completely drawn feom their original position.
To insist on t importance of the teeth, whether in regard
to the functiohs at digestion and articulation, to which they
' are so essential, or to personal appearance, in which they are
so 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-
pable negligence renders the fact too apparent to their friends
.aid associefes.
Mastifiration is the first process of digestion, and unless it
be duly performed, the subsequent processes can never go on
Properly.
So essential is this preparatory process, that the neglect of it
is sufficient to occasion indigestion, a disordered stomach, ner-
voue debility, depression of spirits, the skin becomes rough and
tinged;ef a lead colour, the eyes lose their brilliancy, the lips
their vermillion hue, and, in a word, it is no uncommon thing
for thewhole body to receive such a shock as to cause re-
laxatitin of the whole system, which produces an irritable
temper, quite foreign to the natural disposition, whereby
we become an annoyance to our friends, and a burthen
to 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
know that Monsieur Le Dray's improvements will be
found to be many years in advance of any system now in Eu-
rope, and that artificial teeth ate brought to such perfection, at
his Establishment, No. 60, Newman-street, Oxford -street, as
to perform this function in a manner equal in every respect to
the natural teeth, and may be used with every comfort. They
are so arranged as to restore the face to its former youthful
east, correcting all deformities of the mouth, and entirely doing
sway with the old system of springs, clasps, and wires.
As an essential point of beauty, the teeth must ever stuns.
pre-eminent. No regularity of features, no brilliancy of om-
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 and rendered agreeable by a
good set of teeth. A mouth large 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 eth,
*variably prove disgusting and loathsome.
; Regular teeth, white, and free from all extraneous matter,
Ire an ornament equally attractive in either sex. Those per-
sons who do not oossess this natural advantage, should en-
deavour, by extreme care and cleandness, and a timely resort
to artificial :id, to remedy the imperfections, and supply the
deficiencies of nature, in order that their teeth, if not an agree-
able object, may be prevented, as far as possible, from hecomine
repulsive 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 lie
continues to restore Decayed Teeth with his celebrated Mine-
ral Niarmeratum, 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 least pain ; it is placed into
the cavity in an almost liquid state, and in a few seconds
nardens into enamel, preventing and curing the Tooth Ache,
arresting all further progress of decay', allaying in one minute
the most excruciating pain, and rendering the operation of ex-
raetion unnecessary. elle also fastens loose Teeth, particularly
of aged persons, whetlser arising from neglect, the use of calo-
mel, diseas t of the gunstser any other cause.
ARTIFICIAL or NATURAL TEETH of surpassinr,

Mouth, fixed from one to a complete set, without extracting
the roots or givirg any pain ; and they are so exactly formed to
nature, that the closest observer cannot detect the difference,
with this advantage, that they never change colour, decay, or
