Replant Your Lost Teeth.


When ones front teeth are knocked
out there Is no need to leave them on
the floor, for they can be reinserted
by n good dentist.
Dr.. H. M. Slavery tells In the Lam
Get London), of two cases, in each
Of which several teeth were dislo-
Gated from their sockets. In one case
the teeth were placed in salt water
while the dentist carefully washed
out the sockets. Then they were
reinserted, a stitch or two taken
in the gums and the jaws were BAN
daged shut so that the teeth bit on
. pad of lint. In the other case the
teeth still hung to the gums, so the
sockets were cleaned out without de-
taching the teeth. In both cases tho
teeth became solidly fixed and the
patients could use them for normal
biting in a few months after the acci-
dent.
DR.. De Witt G. Henry of New York

truck driver. that had been knocked
out in a collision. The man had
picked his teeth from the gutter ana
