ARE THE TEETH AFFECTED-BY PRRPARA
TIoNs OF IRON With a view Of axcertaining
the truth OF the popular belief that the prepa.
tions used for medicinal purposes exert an in
furious effect on the teeth. DIR. Smith has in
stituted a number of experiments Eight of
the compounds of iron in most general nse n a
remedial agents, and along with them one or
TWO others containing no iron, but sometimes
suspected OF lnjuring the teeth, were selected
and in solutions of these compounds the same
numb Der aud the same kinds OF teeth were inn
mersed. In each OF these separate solutions
iour teeth were placed, and in all these cases
these four teeth consisted of q sound canine
and bicuspid, and decayed upper and lower
molar. On examining the respective solutions
after twenty -four hours. the teeth were fonnd
unaltered in these of the carbonate and sacca
rlne carbonate of iron, the lodide of iron. the
citrate OF quinine and iron, and in that of the
sulphate of quinine. In the solution of the
what turbid, but the teeth seemed to be un-
touched.
A further trial Of ten days was attended bv
Inc same results, except, in the case of the
teeth immersed In q solution Of the sulphata
OF quinine, slight softening of the surface of
the fang was evident. In solution of wine OF
iron the teeth were dark and discolored hnt
OF IRON, muriate Of iron. phosphorus ccid and
Condy's huid, more marked changes we, . Oh
seryable. The teeth were eoftened in suh
stance and their enamel detached by the two
frst-mentloned sal,s Of iron The incrusta.
ton caused by the Condy solution would he
nearly all removed by brushing. The conclu-
SION drawn from these experiments il, that the
tincture OF tie muriate Of iron and the suIphata
OF iron act most powerfully on the teeth After
ali. little mischief can follow on the momen
tary application of these substances in solu.
