SANITARY Teeth.
BY EFFIE HOUSTON.

Health and happiness depends
largely upon sanitary teeth.
Every normal person, has two
sets of teeth. The tempory teeth
twenty in lumber and the per-
manent teeth, thirty two in mum
ber.
The germs of both sets of teeth
exist in the cells of the jaws
from earliest infancy.
The teeth should be thoroughly
brushed at least twice day that
all PARTICLES of food may be re-
moved.
No metallic substances should
be used in picking the teeth,
as there is danger of breaking
the enamel and causing them to
decay.
Temporary teeth are lost thru
the absorption of their roots but
are sometimes lost through neg
lect which leads to decay.
.permah ent teeth are lost mainly
through diseases of the gums and
through decay.
The teeth decay mainly because
they are not kept clean.
Particles Of food cling to the
teeth and find Judgement between
them.
If these PARTICLES are not re-
moved fermentation sets up and
acids formed attack and desolve
the enamel of the teeth, exposing
the dentine aud decay results.
The first consideration in pre-
serving the teeth is to keep them
clean because clean teeth do not
decay.
Particles of meat aud other
organic matter should be remov-
ed from between the teeth.
The tooth brush should be se-
lected with care and should CON
tain bristles of uneven lengths
so that by brushing the teeth
from the gums toward the crowns
these bristles will remove all
foreign substances.
The teeth should be brushed
twice each day with luke warm
water and a good dental cream
or powder to keep clean teeth
and asweet breath.
The teeth should be examined
by the dentist twice each year
in order that he might remove
stains and fill cavities SO that
decay can no longer continue.
Without good healthy teeth,
perfect mastication and digestion
are impossible.
Inasmucn as our future happi-
ness is largely affected by our
physical health it is highly im-
portant that we give such early
aud diligent care to the teeth
as will insure their unimpaired
usefulness.
