THY GUMS, AND A SWEET

derived from the use of Zerman's

by the most eminent dentUts in the country. It will
cleanse and preserve teeth from decay; it will cure all
diseases of the gums and impart a health}- and fra

UKAIS U LATED GUM.—
This beautiful article, used for secu-
y ring artificial teeth on their plates,
surpasses every attempt at imitating
the natural gum, with somewhat similar preparations;
whilst its strength is so great that I have yet to hear
of the first set of teeth in which it has been broken,
by accident or by use.
My Gold and silver Filiingß are much admired for
their smoothness. This evenness of surface prevents
the lodgment of food about them, which would ren
der them worthless; besides, my plugs will retain the
natural teeth through life, as they never some out.
After a long course of experiments. I have secured
a compound for weak teeth, that can be used when
it is impossible to use any kind of metal.

ARTIFICIAL TEETH—
/m&srSPIL GREAT AND IMPORTANT IM-
V"9 PROVEMENT.—The undersigned
have purchased the right to use Dr.
ALLEN'S PATENT IMPROVEMENT in the mode
of inserting ARTIFICIAL TEETHj which is one
of the greatest and most important inventions ever
mode in this branch of the Dentist's art.
The improvement consists in the employment of a
metal superior to gold in purity, and in the complete
union of all the teeth by a siiicious compound, which
at the same time forms the most beautiful and natu
ral locking gum, and filling up all crevices and irregu
larities, and rendering it impossible for the teeth to
become unpleasant to the wearer by the accumula
tion of particles of food or other substanccs between
thein. No other mode of mounting artificial teeth it
comparable to this in anv respect.
Persons wearing teeth (inserted in the ordinary
way, and not giving satisfaction,) aro invited to try
this invention, which they can do at but little addi
tional cost.
We shall be pleased to show specimens of this kind
of work to any persons who wilt call at our office,
whether they want artificial teeth or not
