All sharp edges aro avoided , there is no extraction of roots , nor any painful operation ; an amount of elasticity unattainable by any other method is acquired , while the fit is of the most unerring accuracy ; such , indeed , as is by any other means unattainable . Tho success which our system has attained has induced many imitators . We therefore beg to say that the above , perfected , together with the white enamel for front teeth ( of which we are sole proprietors ) , can only b » obtained at our establishments , 88 , Ludgate-hill ( 33—observo number particularly ) , and at 134 , Duke-street , Liverpool .

Country patients are informed that one visit of-half an hour is only required for the completion of a single tooth or complete set ; and , unless tho utmost satisfaction is given , no fee reauired .
