partners may always be found in attendance. They
respectfully tender their professional services to their
friends and the public, and invite all who may re-
quire the advice and skill of the experienced and
practical dentist to call on hem learn their terms,
and examine their claims to public confidence and
patronage. They would particularly call attention
10 their patent method Of fastening artificial teeth
when set gold plate which is used by them alone
in the city Of Washington. The most prominent
advantages are the following
lst. It saves the pain attendant upon the removal
of the roots of the front teeth when healthy con-
dition, and makes those roots highly useful in fast
ening the artificial teeth.
Cd II gives the teeth greater frmness, rendering
them always much less troublesome and more use
full in the process Of mastication than the common
mode
3D. II renders it easy to remove and replace the
teeth, which, together with the peculiar simplicity
Of the asenings, enable the wearer to keep them al
ways clean.
The great improvement secured by this patent
needs but to be seen in order to be understood and
used to be appreciated II is universally commend
ed by those who have awaited themselves of its adj
vantages
