OSTEO-EIDON. Patent, March 1, 1862. No. 560. OSTEO-EIDON, now Protected by Royal Letters Patent. Analysed and Reported on by Professor PEPPER. Prepared in the Laboratories and under the personal superintendence of Messrs. GABRIEL. The OSTEO-EIDON is guaranteed free from any ad- mixture. Being completely plastic, it is moulded with the utmost accuracy to the mouth and jaws, so as to be at once UNFELT by the wearer, and undistinguished by the keenest observer being elastic, it occasions no feeling of pressure, WHILST THE COATING of virgin gold secures it from being tainted by drugs or abnormal sec- retions. EFFICIENCY OF ARTIFICIAL TEETH. The inventions of Messrs. GABRIEL, the old estab- lished and experienced Dentists, have brought the practice of their profession to so high a degree of perfection, that partial or entire Sets of Teeth can be promptly and per. fectly adjusted, and in such a manner as to be removed and replaced at pleasure, TO BE WORN WITHQ.UT the least INCONVENIENCE, to present the appearance of Natural Teeth of great beauty, and to be incapable of any noxious effect upon the mouth. ^PGABR/ £ ^d K *YHEOLD ESTABLISHED J B^ENTIS'YS^ 27, HURLEY STREET, CAVENDISH SQUARE, AND 34, LUDGATE HILL, LONDON ,LIVERPOOL, 134, DUKE STREET BIRMINGHAM 65, NEW STREET American Mineral Teeth, oestin Europe, 4 to 7, and 10 to 15 Guineas per Set, Warranted. STOPPINGS FOR TEETH. More Teeth are sacrificed by the use of injurious Stop. pings, having high sounding names, than by any other process. These stoppings invariably contain quicksilver or some other injurious substance, which slowly but surely undermines the tooth it was intended to save. Gabriel's Chemically prepared White Gutta Percha Enamel Is the best Stopping extant for Decayed Teeth, Tooth- ache, and, no matter how far decayed, renders the injured member again sound and useful, and prevents tooth-ache. This preparation is entirely free from any metallic sub. stance, and, as its name signifies, is specially prepared for the purpose.
