TRENTON. Jan. 10-That a prop
er campaign of education be com
menced looking toward better care of
the teeth and careful dental work is
of the striking recommendations
in the annual report of the State Hos
pttal here. Just made public today by
the Department OF institutions and
Agencies. DR.. Henry T. Cotton. med
zeal director. makes the recommen-
dation. Infected teeth. he states, have
been attributed for much of the in
sanity hat has come under the hos
pitfalls observations. Infections and
toxemia, as DR.. Cotton has previous
ly pointed out, are shown to have
been the most important contribut-
ing factors in producing mental dis
ease.
The education, as proposed by DR..
Cotton, should be along the lines of
endeavoring to have dentists extract
infected teeth rather than through
mechanical dentistry seek to save
them. To the extraction Of infected
teeth as we'll as to operation on the
tonsils and other organs of the body,
DR.. Cotton has attributed his success
In being able to discharge 274 pa
TENTS of 40 cases that had been adj
mitted to the institution.
