JUL Fleet-street, has introduced an entirely new de-
scription of ARTIFICIAL TEET fixed without
springs, wires, or ligatures. They so perfectly resemble
the natural teeth as not to be distinguished from the ori-
ginals by the closest observer; they will never change
colour or decay, and will be found superior to any teeth
ever before used. This method does not require the
extraction of roots, or any painful operation, and will
support and preserve teeth 1 hat are loose, and is gua-
ranteed to restore articulation and mastication. Decayed
teeth stopped and rendered sound and useful in masti-
cation.
