tent than an office which does only onehalf to one
third OF the volume that we do can possibly afford
10 take.
Remember, il is maxim of this office that we
operate on teeth, and not on pocketbooks.
5th. Strict sanitation is a hobby with us at
this office. We have spent great deal of money
TO provide perfect sanitation. We have the most
modern sterilizng apparatus. All instruments are
thoroughly Sterlized after being used. All attend
ants and operators are dressed in Spotless white at
all times. You will be impressed with the efforts
we have made for sanitation and cleanliness-you
can't help but be.
9th. Our painless methods will appeal to you.
Many people have put off having necessary work
done account of being afraid of its hurting them
severely TO have the work done. If you are among
this number we say to you at this time that you
need delay no longer. We have brought our sys-
tenn of painless dentistry to such point of perfec
ton that we are now able TO guarantee to perform
practically any dental operation without hurting the
patient bit
We invite you to call and let one of our expert
dentists give your teeth thorough examination.
He will tell you just what needs TO be done to put
your teeth in perfect condition and also just what
the cost will be.
This examination and estimate won't cost you
a cent, nor will ii put you under any obligation to
have work done unless you want it. And moreover,
you will be due for pleasant surprise when you get
our estimate of cost.
Don't you think, honestly that it is about time
you gave yourself the advantage of perfect set of
teeth'
