Dental profession I'm Seattle may
well be proud of this able man.
siouxhing Sore Teeth.
A common condition after extrac-
tion is a sloughing sore mouth. IL
Is usually caused by lack OF proper
preparation before extracting, and
failure on the part OF the dentist to
have all instruments clean and ster-
lie. In the thirteen years that have
been extracting teeth in Seattle
have never had slouching sore
mouth after extracting, because all
my instruments are thoroughly
cleaned and sterilixed. l have two
special offices for extracting teeth
one for ladies and one for gentlemen.
Experience has proved that extracts
ing teeth should not be done in the
same room where other dental work
is done for sanitary reasons.
Making Artificial Teeth.
ANY dentist viii tell you that the
greatest skill known TO the practice
OF dentistry Ia required in making a
stacles encountered are great. An
impression must be had which will
distribute the pressure equally to
all tissue covered by the denture.
and all resistance must be relieved.
The teeth must be OF proper length
and size to give natural expression
and contour. so as TO restore thu
natural feature. Teeth of proper
natural shade and shape must be
used the articulation and occlusion
must be scientifically correct. Thus
YOU notice that an endless chain OF
detailed mechanism must be OBJ
served In it's most minute detail In
constructing perfect artificial
dcnture.
