MONS. LE DRAY, SURGEON-DENTIST, from the
Firm of LE DRAY and CO., London.
A NEW DISCOVERY IN ARTIFICIAL TEETH,
FIXED WITHOUT WIRES, SPRINGS, OR LIGATURES.
SCURVY in the GUMS EFFECTTIALLY,MOVED.
LOOSE TEETH FASTENED.
And filling Decayed Teeth with Mineral armoratum.
MONO. LE DRAY and CO., Surgeon-Dentists, respect-
fully inform the Nobility, Gentry, and Inhabitants of Liver-
pool and its vicinity, that they have opened Establishments
permanently at No. 70, SEEL-STREET, Liverpool, (eight
doors from Berry-street,) and No. 52, GEORGE-STREET,
Manchester.

They continue to fill up the cavities of Decayed Teeth
with their Mineral Marmoratum, without the least pain,
heat, or pressure ; it is placed into the cavity in an almost
liquid state, and in a few seconds gets hard, preventing
and curing the Tooth-ache, arresting all further pro-
gress of decay, and rendering the operation of extraction
unnecessary. The Mineral not only converts a mere shell
into a sound and useful tooth, but, by completely stopping
up the cavity, prevents effectually that unpleasant taint of
the breath which invariably accompanies a decayed tooth.
Among the various disorders of the Teeth and Gums, there
are none more destructive in their effects, or more generally
prevalent, than scurvy ; and it is well known that the loss
of Teeth arises more from this cause than any other. It
affects individuals of all ages and of all constitutions, and it
is the primary cause of Tooth-ache and decay. To those so
affected; Mons. LE DRAY and Co. have to inform them,
that they can effectually remove this destructive complaint
by a single application, without the slightest pain.
Mons. La DRAY begs to introduce to the notice of his
Patients and the Public, an entire new description of IN-
CORRODIBLE ARTIFICIAL TEETH, and can with
confidence guarantee them to answer every purpose of Mas-
tication and Articulation, and defy detection from the closest
observer. They never change colour or break, as those now
used, are fixed without wires or ligatures, and have no un-
pleasant odour or unnatural gloss. This method does not
require the extraction of roots, or any painful operation, and
will give support and preserve Teeth that are loose, at the
following Paris charges :*
A single Artificial Tooth
A complete Set
A complete Set of Natural Teeth, on fine
gold plate
An entire Set of Natural or Terro Metal-
lic Teeth, highly finished, in the fii f. t
style, with fine gold sockets, usually
charged 40 guineas
Loose Teeth fastened, arising either from age, disease, or
mercury, and deficiencies of palate effectually remedied.
Artificial Teeth out of repair, remodelled to fit the mouth,
and restored equal in beauty and durability to their original
state. Attendance from Nine till Seven, and on Sundays
trom Nine till Two.
For the convenience of country patients. Monsieur
Lim DRAY and Co. are enabled to fix a partial or complete
set of Teeth at one sitting, without he least pain or incon-
venience.
