professional services to their friends and the public,
and invite all who may require the advice and skill

ening artificial teeth when set ON gold plate. which
Is used by them alone in the city of Washington.
The most prominent advantages are the following:
LIST. 1t saves the pain attendant upon the removal
of the roots Of the front teeth when in healthy
condition. and makes those roots highly useful in
fastening the artificial teeth a HH
3D. Ii gives the teeth greater firmness, rendering
them always much less troublesome and more USE
ful in the process of mastication than the common
mode. fr'u er

teeth which, together with the peculiar simplicity
of the fas,enings, enable the weaIer TO keep them
always clean. tr . a. ~
