CAUTION TO PERSONS NEGLECT
ING THEIR TEETH AND GUMS.
IXTRACT FROM MONS. LE. DRAY'S "TREATISE ON LOSS OF
TEETH."
_

Among the various disorders of the Mouth, there is none
Store 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
,oft 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 that
the loss of Teeth arises more from this cause than any other.
On this subject a distinguished Lecturer makes the followings
"+blervations :—" When the disgusting effects of this accumu-
lation are con.idere4, it would appear impossible that any per-
?talon could be necessary to induce persons to obviate so great
Ea. tlaisance even on their own account : or if they are too de-
"(I to procure their own comfort and cleanliness by employ-
ra skilful Dentist, they surely have no right to shock the
ol inses of ethers, who possess more delicacy and propriety of
" than themselves. Yet, so it is ; and the sight and the
6111e11 are alike constantly outraged by the filthiness of some
tlle, who seem to obtrude their faces the closer in proportion
tta disgust which they occasion."—Bell's Lectures, p. 199.
Could such persons only see the horrid state of their teeth
111(1 RUMS, or for a moment catch the odour of their own
pwreath, they would not hesitate to seek immediate relief. To
rofessional men, shop-keepers, and tradesmen generally, who
ttare much intercourse with the refined and fashionable world,
s good state of the mouth must be of the greatest importance 1. "sides, is not an offensive breath, which in nineteen cases out
of twenty proceeds from the bad state of the teeth and gums,
PI much calculated to prevent the blessing of matrimony?
of "'ld how often, from inadvertence or neglect, is the happiness
eau thc marriage state most grievously interupted by the same
bel~he inconvenieneies attending the Loss of Teeth are too
nen known to require comment, but to those who have not ex-
rerienced the comfort of Artificial Teeth, Monsieur Le Draw
1a desirous of showing some of the difficulties more or less en •
I,:ted, by every individual without them. When the Teeth are
▪ 't is impossible to make use of solid food ; and if the
the
path is then loaded with pieces without being masticated.
ito_Patent is exposed to the most distressing indigestions, the
t,,,msch loses its power of contraction, and becomes weak in
tre-Zljula as it no longer digests; besides, when the Teeth
eve Bone, a great vacuum is left in the mouth, which occasions
sre'r„_fluiscle in the face to be distorted, and the whole features
TZFlPletely drawn from their original position.
to the Psilt on the importance of the teeth, whether in regard
ape sn"lllctions of digestion and articulation, to which they
so rn; essential, or to personal appearance, in which they are
ohyi "e" concerned, must appear a waste of words, were it not
(}lO !ars that there are man) persons who never give themselves
kw:rouble to think upon the subject ; who seem scarcely
tailre that they possess teeth at all, while their gross and cut-
%s r) negligence renders tha fact too apparent to their friends
'u associates.
pAlastifieation is the first process of digestion, and unless it
*il? Performed, the subsequent processes can never go on
y.
essenfial is this preparatory process, that the neglect of it
.4 sufficient to occasion indigestion, a disordered stomach, ner-
,.o_lls debility, depression of spirits, the skin becomes rough And
17. of a lead colour, the eyes lose their brilliancy, the lips
foe the
hue, and, in a word, it is no uncommon thing
ffnur the whole body to receive such a shock as to cause relaxation
the
whole system, which produces an irritable temper, quite
or
eign to the natural disposition, whereby we become an an-
nuYance to our friends, and a burthen to ourselves. But I need
11.‘ot dwell upon the numberless concomitant evils which may
;11% owe their origin to imperfect mastication. It is sufficient
to
know that Monsieur Le Dray's improvements will be
!rotind to be many years in advance of any system now in En-
.°l3e, and Establishment, N artificial teeth are brought to uch perfection, at
fme Establiso. 60, Newman-street,s Oxford •street, as
h perform this function in a manner
equal in every respect to
e riot oral teeth, and may be used with every comfort. They
are so arranged as to restore the face to its former youthful
cast, correcting all deformities of the mouth, and entirely doing
kwav with the old system of springs, clasps, and wires.
As an essential point of beauty, the teeth must ever sten .
pre-eminent. No regularity of features, no brilliancy of cm-
piexion, 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
annotieed, when it contains teeth beautifully white and even.
On the other hand the effects of decay, the accumulation of
tartar, the blackened and dnuded fans, and the taint o the breath, which is a commone concomitant of bad teeth, f
will
uvariably prove disgusting and loathsome.
Regular teeth, white, and free from all extraneous matter,
ire an ornament equally attractive in either sex. These per-
sons., Ml° do not possess this natural advantage, should en-
deavour, by extreme care and cleanliness, and a timely resort
to artificial rid, to remedy the imperfections, and supply the
deficiencies of n,ture, in order that their teeth, if not an agree-
able I,l)i,ct, may be prevented, as far as possible, from becomini
repulsivc one.
Alonsieur LE DRAY, Surgeon-Dentist, 60, Newman-street,

respectfully acquaints the Nobility, Gentry,
