O you remember that sensation of horror when you first looked in the mirror and saw a gaping hole in your smile?

What a dramatic change in your appearance had been made by a flick of the dentist's wrist!

Nothing spoils good looks more than missing. teeth or bad artificial substitutes.

Your appearance after that unpleasant operation depends on the dentist's skill in choosing and fitting false teeth. Their shape and colour mean much to you.

There are men who devote their lives to evolving more riaturally shaped and coloured false teeth. At least 15,000,000 false teeth are used in Britain every year. Four large factories. are responsible for most of this output. To establish a really first-class factory you would have to sink £60,000.

One firm examined 2,500 people before embarking on a new range of shades. They recorded the dominant, subtominant, and submerged colours in the hair, skin, and eyes, and the condition of the gums.

All these factors have to be taken into consideration in determining the right shade for a patient.

In early days human teeth were used, and men used to scour tho battlefields to find them. Teeth were

also carved from elephants' tusks.

The first substitute other than animal substances was made by a Frenchman in 1710.
