UR teeth in Hongkong to-day are better than they have been for several generations. There is less dental caries in the front of the mouth, and, owing to the new scientific attitude to dentistry, more people are keeping their teeth into middle-age.

Overcrowding of teeth still exists to a large extent. This is due very largely to the fact that the average British head and jaw is long and narrow, and at the same time we have the racial charne- teristic of Inrge teeth.

In some instances the milk teeth are

per- Inanent teeth to come through in grood position. With this treatment it is hoped to avoid the necessity of removing any of the permanent teeth later on to prevent overcrowding. All milk teeth are now treated as serious nccessories and are filled in similar way to the permanent teeth.

A tooth that was first killed, as in former prastien, was found either- to turn black after Alling or else to loosen and come away from the jaw, after a year or 80.
