R. HOWARD, SURGEON-DENTIST, 52,
LTA. Fleet-street, has introduced an entirely new de-
cription of ARTIFICIAL TEETH, fixed without
prings, wires, or ligatures. They so perfectly resemble
the natural teeth as not to be distinguished from the ori-
nals 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 that are lonse, and is gua.
ranteed to restore articulation and mastication. Decayed
teeth stopped and rendered sound and useful m masti-
cation.
