AN EFFECTIVE REMEDV FOR OUR WINTER ROADS.

TEETH EXTRACTION

You have been havlns pain in some of your joints, perhaps the knee or hips.

After your physician has gone over you. he suggests that you get an X-Ray of the teeth.

After examining the piste and in consultation with your dentist,

Most physicians and dentists try to retain the natural teeth for you if possible. because they grind the food better, sud are more comfort- able.

So if they advise the removal of teeth you may rest assured that it is necessary-

And now comes the big worry. You must undergo the extraction of teeth.

As you go to the dentist he tolls you that he can extract teeth by three methods. First. remove them without any preliminaries whatever. Simply put on the forceps nnd draw them out:

This was the old method. Second. "He can put an anaesthe- tic into your gums that will block the nerves, and you will feel no pain whatever.

Third. He can use gas, which will put you into a dreamy state and you'll feel no pain.

qWliat are you going to do about

My suggestion is that you takc the dentist's advice in the matter. if the teeth are diseased and arc getting loose in the sockets, thorc is no need for any anaesthetic, either lnto the gums. or by menus of gas.
