CARE OF THE TEETH
By Dr.. S. c. TYMONY

very quick TO ask that a pulp be
killed The dentist is thereby put to
the task of explaining why this pro
cedurc would be detrimental to the
health OF his patient. 1t is enough
for the public to learn that a live
pulp in a tooth is the safest OF all
projections against infection and con-
sequent general bodily debilitation.
How then do the infected roots OF
the teeth give rise to the numerous
ills charged against them! The
answer is simple when we recall that
the nerve twigs and blood vessels
that enter the teeth at the end OF their
roots to furnish nourishments are but
tiny branches of the great blood and
nervous systems that supply the en-
tire body. Any infectve materials
may thus find their way from the
tooth into the general blood stream
and be transported to other small
branches in the brain or in the feet,
where infection is again set up re-
suting in untold effects.
Many dental operations are some
what painfully done in order that the
pulp may be conserved There are
many methods of deadening {anaes-
,hetizing) the feeling OF tooth under
operation. but in the large majority
of cases it is preferable that the tooth
be worked upon in its normal state
so that the response of the pulp may
be used as guide to warn the opera
tor when too near encroachment Is
progressing and thereby prevent in
jury to this protecting element of the
tooth.
The pulp is also the source of the
inimitable color OF the tooth; usually
when the tooth loses this source a
canny lifeless unsightly thing remains
as mute evidence of a vacant shell
from which the little sea animal has
Red no more to be desired.
In conclusion let us so resolve &c
care for the early indications OF i'm
pending danger oil, the loss OF our
teeth that the visit to the dentist may
be more pleasureable in that only
minor operations such as cleaning the
teeth, placing small filings and gen
eral oral toilet may suffice. A tooth
whose pulp has been destroyed is q
weak and vulnerable makeshift. which
according to increasing number OF
reputable dentists should not be
allowed to remain in the mouth.
The extraction of all such pulpiesS
teeth is radical doctrine just now, but
the fact that many authorities advo'
cate it, is sufficient proof OF the seri-
business OF the need OF conservation
of the life OF all possible tooth pups

tip OF either foreigners. who did moi
know about the prevention OF this
disease or religious sects that are pre-
JUDGED against vaccination. In some
communities, school children brought
notes from their parents informing
the teacher not to have their children
vaccinated because God had given
them sufficient protection. On the
other hand these were the very
neighborhoods where smallpox devel-
oped in the severest forms.
Vaccination against smallpox IS no
new experiment. 1t is scientific
process that has been based upon
many years of experiment. II is
found that the virus of an eruptive
disease OF the COW termed (CoX Pox)
when inoculated into man produces a
local pox with constitutional disturb
ances which afford protection, more
or less permanent, against smallpox.
In the United States COW poS was
introduced by Benjamin Waterhouse,
Professor of Physics at Harvard, who
on July 9th. 1900. vaccinated seven OF
his children. In Boston. August 10th,
1902, nineteen boys were inoculated
with COW pox. On November 9th,
twelve of them were inoculated with
smallpox; the results were that after
being inoculated with COW poX then
smallpox virus, none of them devel-
oped smallpox. A control expert
ment was made by inoculating two
unvaccinated boys with the same
smallpox virus; both took the disease.
The nineteen children on August
10th. were again unsuccessfully moe
ulated with fresh virus from these
two boys. This is one of the most
crucial experiments in the history OF
vaccination and fully justified the
conclusion of the Board of Health.
Cow Pox is complete security
against the smallpox.
Communities in which vaccination
and revaccination are thoroughly and
Systematically carried out are those
in which smallpox has the fewest
victims.
Vaccination should be performed
between the 4th and 9th month in
children. If unsuccessful, il should be
repeated from time to time. 1t should
be postponed if the child has any all
ment or suffers from syphilis or a
skin disease. The child should be
again revaccinated at the age of nine
years. A person exposed to the con-
tagion of smallpox should always be
revaccinated. This If successful.
usually protects but not always. The
effects OF a single vaccination may
wear out so it is important that each
be vaccinated every seven
years.
In conclusion let me warn you
smallpox can be prevented by vaccin-
alton and do not let any religious
sect prejudice you against this pro-
lection as an unvaccinated person is
not only menace to himself, but also
to the community in which he lives.
