TELLING THE AGE FROM THE TEETH

It is now well-known that in- fected teeth cause many ailments in the joints. kidneys. skin. and other parts of the body. A felv weeks ago we reported the work of Dr. Edrward C. Stafne in the Jour- nal pf the American Dental As- sociation. who stated that diseases of other organs can in turn so af- fect the structure and appearance of the teeth that general ailments can be located or diagnosed. This means that dentists are now called on not only to treat diseases of the mouth itselt but also to aid in the dlagliosis of various diseases throughout the body.

It is known that a horses age can be estimated from its teeth. Now it is reporter in the Journal of the American Dental Associa- tion. that Dr. Costa Gustatson of the State Dental Department of Maimo. Sweden. has worked out I mathematical formula to detect the age of ii person within three or four years. by his teeth. Pointing out that determin- ation of age plays a large role in legal medicine. in crimes and in
