Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dominion Dental Journal, 1889, Vol. 1 In a paper read before the New York Odontological Society, in December, 1875, I ventured to give one of the quickest cases of regulating the teeth on record, done without plates or ligatures, and comprising ideas as old as Hun ter and as modern as Tomes. The case was a unique one, inasmuch as it was one where the patient, a young man eighteen years old, had determined to have the teeth extracted and artificial substitutes inserted. I am aware that other modes of treatment might have been used by those who could command a large fee, but as the case was one which I volunteered as an experiment, and for which no reasonable fee was expected, I made choice of two evils - the one I chose having proved to be a blessing in disguise. Through the courtesy of the publisher of the Cosmos I am able to present the illustrations. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
