It is now a well estab- lished fact which is admitted by the highest medical au- thority that the teeth have a most direct and vital bearing on the general health. ‘Well authenticated cases are known of in which bad teeth were the cause of rheumatism, swollen joints, and even serious diseases of spine have been <at- tributed to the poisons generated in decaying teeth. And then here is the most baleful of all of the disorders, indiges- tion. If you will ask your physician about it he will tell you that a bad digestion is at the bottom of more human ills than almost any other one thing. And this is how bad teeth make bad digestion. Decaying teeth make the very finest possible homes for germs of all kinds. The temperature of the mouth and surroundings generally are such that these germs multiply with the greatest rapidity in decayed teeth. They in turn generate most virulent poisons, which are communicated di- rectly into the stomach as the food comes in contact with the teeth. You can easily imagine what happens then—these poisons and germs going into the stomach and mingling with the digestive apparatus are bound to have a most serious effect on the digestion. What happens then? The food is improperly digested and the general health is undermined. The victim becomes less and less efficient. In fact, there are few more destructive agencies for the human anatomy than a decaying tooth. DR. L. R. CLARK | \ operator who did the work and also by L. R. Clark, D. D.
