livery day more than a million
children arc unable to cat properly the
food that l.s set before them, because '
their teeth aie so painful, missing or
displaced. Uvcry day several million
chlldien are being slowly poisoned b.v
the gases, pus and germs of their own
defective teeth
An aching tooth Is the final certificate
of weeks of negligence or error A gum
boll Is evidence of a decaying tooth1
protesting at both ends. A tooth cannot
atho until so much decaying food and
tartar have accumulated as to destroy
the enamel so that the poison has eaten
Its way Into the Inside of the tooth.
To wait until a tooth aches before
going to a dentist is as sensible as to
wait until tho undertaker Is needed be
fere calling 11 physician
The enamel of tho teeth is noimallv
a hard, thick, protecting substance If
tho food for a child (or for the mother
for several munths before his hlithl does
not supply enough material for the
enamel, this will be thin and rnsiu
destroyed. If his Jaws have not enough
haid exercise, or If he has too much of '
clinging, fermenting foods, his teeih will
suffer.
Defective teeth are not merely aching
leeth or teeth with cavities Iirecular. I
crooked or projecting teeth are a menace t
health ns wen as ueing unsigiiiiy

They prevent sufficient chewing of food

which will lower the child's mental 1
ability imd his moral conduct
Both the first nnd the becond sets of
teeth are already foiined In the Jaws
at birth. The "baby teeth ' arc not sim
ply loosened and dropped out. Much of
tholr substance is normally absorbed to
form the permanent teeth If tho first
teeth arc neglected and allowed to
decay or pulled too early, the second
set will n-Jt bo so strong. '
A dally blushing Is far from suf-'
ficlent for maintaining normal teeth.
Uffectlvo care requires the right kind
of a toothbrush, usej correctly and kept
antiseptic, otherwise the dally brushing
may be a menace. Toothmaklng food
is required," and to;th-lnJurlug food Is
to 'be avoided. ' A visit to tho dentist
every six months after the year one Is
necessary In order to keep the teeth I
clean, to prevent the beginning of tooth- 1
decay and to correct crookedness. I
