Most Dentists Common
Tooth PullerS.

Dentists are continually cautioning
the public to save their teeth; that Is,
not to have them extracted But they
refer solely to dccaying teeth, which
they wish to have the opportunity of
filing or crownng. OF course, there is
little else to do with decayed tooth
but to Ali it, but these same dentists
who implore you TO save your teeth
will pull good teeth without tremor
simply because they are loose from
disease. [ wish TO reiterate that there
is no need OF extracting or losing any
tooth simply because it is loose / have
a device and a remedy by which / can
fasten any loose teeth and make them
forever solid. This is part of the
system l have originated.
Now, with regard to diseases Of the
gums III which dentists are so patheti.
cally helpless. In the course Of the
fifteen years l spent developing my
slveolar system Of dentistry / also
found something that will stop pus

the gums from recedlng, and thus either

practically new life, making them ruddy
and healthy and natural / have never
known this system to fail in any dis

this unequivocally.
AS to the third Improvement in den
tistry outlined in my talks, l said that
the majority Of people were wearing
plates of false teeth when it could have
been avoided. For example, a person
has three or four teeth on the upper
Jaw, and let us say half dozen on the
lower jaw. Perhaps these remaining
teeth are solid, and perhaps they are
not The patient complains that he can
no longer masticate his food and that
he is otherwise having constant trou.
BILE The dentist promptly suggests ex.
traction, and a plate of false teeth to
follow. Have you ever stopped to real
ize what this means to the poor vic
tlm2 A tooth once extracted is gone
forever. All tine teeth once extracted
can never be restored. The unfortunate
one must wear plate Of false teeth the
rest of his or her life Think of thatl
BY my alveolar method, if there had
been two or more teeth on either Jaw
whether solid, sound or loose makes no
difference, ! could have prevented the
wearing OF plate Of false teeth. All
l require is two or more teeth on
either jaw. With these To start with I
can give YOU back Your hlrty-tWo
teeth, and / will defy any one, dentist
or laymsn, to tell the substitutes from
the original ones. Each tooth will be
as solid and useful as any tooth in any
human beings mouth. In this wav I
have saved many n one the discom-
fort of wearing plate of false teeth,
and | am prepared TO save YOU a simi,
lar discomfort if you are in that con
dition.
