DISCOLORED TEETH

Striking New Effect
FATTERlf sna
T EETH are never pure white. A
negro’s teeth look white because of
the contrast with hls dark skin. Most
teeth . are a blending of yellow and
blue. The enamel and dentine are both
seml-translucent, the dentine carrying
the underlying color, which is more
or less yellow.
Discoloration of the teeth is usual
ly- due to deposits on the outer sur
face, to fillings ot to drugs to treat
teeth. Deposits that form on the outer
surfaces, of teeth are due to the for
mation of mucin plaques which be-
Thls class of stains Is due entirely to
failure to keep the tooth surfaces
clean.
In certain parts of the country,
many of the children have badly spot
ted teeth and discolored enamel This
is due to the mineral content of the
water. i ■
Where the enamel Is broken or worn
away so the dentine Is exposed It Is
very easily discolored. When the front
teeth erupt their cutting edges have
three serrations which wear away as
the teeth are used^Thls wear Increa
with age and finally, in many in
stances, the enamel Is worn through.
Discoloration then Is easy. Many to
bacco users’ teeth finally become very
dark as the stain penetrates through
the tiny canals which radiate all
through the dentine. Women who
smoke will find their front teeth grow-
ing disgustingly unsightly as they
grow older.
Pitted teeth are also a source of
discoloration. Pits In teeth are usual
ly due to childhood diseases, such as
measles, scarlet fever, etc. Any Illness
that interferes with the nutrition for
a short period of time may cans? pits
In the tqeth. Yet the teeth are not
directly attacked by these diseases, as

This Is not true.
The pits are a secondary result,' due
to the fact that all the poweite of the
system are concentrated on combating
the disease and its effects, during the
period when the teeth are forming.
Pitted teeth decay rapidly because
they afford a lodging place for the
fermentation of food. They are usually
treated by filling which Is necessary
after decay starts. Many of these
cases can be treated by polishing. The
enamel can be polished down until the
surface Is smooth, which prevents de
cay, and removes and prevents a re
turn of the discoloration.

*r the other sanitarium,' located In
Some distant part of the country, offers
a sure cure Tor tuberculosis, largely
pu account of climatic condltlqqs.-
Statistici? show that only a fraction
of 1 per cent of city children have
tuberculosis. In spite of the smoky at
mosphere of the city, while 3.7 per
cent of country children have an af
fection of the lungs. The proportion
runs just about four to one against the
rural youngsters.
This list could be carried on In
definitely.
To what Is this condition due?
It can only be^due to one thing. The
city child gets better medical and
dental attention than the country child.
No one can go through our country
districts without' noticing the dirty,
unkempt mouths of most people.
They seldom visit a dentist except io
have a tooth extracted'
Bad teeth are acknowledged to have
• direct bearing on the health, and
teeth without doubt play_j.n_Lmportant
part In the poor showing of the coun
try child.
The army draft In the late war dis
closed the fact that the city boy has
far better teeth and la more perfect
physically than the boy from the rural
dlstrlcta. The city Ley has a far better
opportunity to come In contact with
the dentist and learns to take care of
Lis teeth and keep them In a high state
of efficiency. In most of our city
schools there Is some sort of fctrtal
examinations of the children, while '
only a few states make any' attempt to
care for the teeth of the children In
country acheols.
The draft In the late war also showed
that a large per cent of the physical/
defects of our boys are remediable, and
they were remedied wherever possible.
Is this not the best possible argument
for military training? Would It hot
be far better to draft our young-men
who are out of work now and put them
In the army where they would receive
proper medical and dental care than
to keep them In Idleneaa on a dole?
