In the first place good HEALTH depends to a large extent on good teeth. It’s a good bet that a person with bad teeth can’t come anywhere near having 100% food health. And when it comes right down to cold facts, just what would you take for your health, anyhow? We'll wager that you couldn’t be induced to put a price on it. And yet scientists now know it to be a posi- tive fact that decayed teeth, especially if they have abscesses around the roots, are one of the most prolific causes of human ills. A lot of things come from them, such as Rheumatism Ear Trouble Eye Trouble Throat Trouble Spinal Diseases And many other things that can be and are caused by the continual seeping of pus poison into the system. We suggest that you consult your physi- cian about this when you have the opportun- ity. — will tell you very quickly just how dangerous an abscessed tootk can . Can you always tell when a tooth is abscessed? . Our answer to this is “No.” You can’t always tell. The tooth may a pear on the outside to be perfectly healthy and normal. It may not pain you or give you any inconvenience whatever, and yet this selfsame tooth may be sending its stream of deadly poison into your system every hour and every minute of the day. What are you going to do about that? There is just one thing to do and that is to have your teeth examined by an expert dentist. Especially should you do this if you have any dis- ease such as or similar to those listed above, which does not seem to re- spond to regular treatment as it should. It is entirely ible, indeed even probable, that your trouble may be an abscessed oF agg The skilled knowledge of the expert dentist, such as those employed at this office, will very soon detect the trouble if there be such, will be able to advise you as to just what ought to be done to put your teeth into perfect condition. Every dentist in this office is a graduate registered dentist of the high- est standing in his profession. Every one of them has his certificate from the state dental board hanging right on’ the wall in front of his dental chair in plain sight of all. So that you are sure of getting intelligent, high-class dental service when you come to this office. ' . You will find our prices the most reasonable obtainable, considering high- est quality workmanship and materials. You will find that our guarantee protects you from every possible angle. Why delay, then? FREE EXAMINATION : We invite you to call and let one of our rt dentists give your teeth a thorough examination. He will quickly tell you if they need attention, and just what the cost will be to put them into perfect condition. This examination and estimate won’t cost you a cent, nor put you under obli- ation to have work done unless you want it.
