DENTAL SURGERY.
DODGE a. PARMELE.

nENTAL SURGEONS, of Bond-street New
~ York, having practised the three past winters
in this city, respectfully announce TO their friends
and the public that they have concluded to keep
their Washington Office open during the entire year
in future at their present location on
Pennsylvania Ave., betpeen 9M g. 10Th sis.
where one or both of the partners may always be
found in attendance. They respectfully tender their
professional services to their friends and the public,
and invite all who may require the advice and skill
of the experienced and practical Dentist to call
them, learn their terms, and examine their claims to
public confidence and patronage. They would par
tcuary call attention to their patent method Of fast
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.
3D. It gives the teeth greater firmness, rendering
them always much less troublesome and more use-
full in the process Of mastcation than the common
mode.
3d. It renders iteasy to remove and replace the
teeth, which, together with the peculiar simplicity
of the fastenings, enable the wearer to keep them
always clean.
The great improvement secured by this patent
needs but to be seen in order to be understood and
used to be appreciated. It is universally commend
ed by those who have avaied themselves Of its ad-
vantages.

York Of the highest responsibility and standing con-
tanning the strongest and most favorable testimon-
ais, both as to the excellence Of his private charac-

and my wife and myself arc now able, from person
al experience, to add our own equally favorable tes-
timony in his favor as gentleman and skilful
