comforts of diseased teeth. | will
not make this article longer by
discussing the long list of ills
which are caused by bad teeth
but will mention only two of the
most prominent, indigestion and
neuralgia of the face and head.
Those who are suffering untold
agonies from these two diseases
would almost invariably ex'
perience relief by having their
teeth attended to by a competent
dentist. If this did not produce
complete cure the most active
causes would be removed, and
then it wonld be comparatively
easy for the physician to bring en-,
tire relief. Remove the cause and
as a natural consequence the effect
will disappear.
