      MINERAL TERRA METALLIC . For Filling Decayed Teeili , wWiuut Heat , Pain , or Pressure ; and Incorrodible Mineral Teeth fixed without giving the least Pain , or shewing any fastening wlutlever . LEEDS AND BRADFORD . ME . ESEELL , SUEGEON DENTIST , Oi NO . 12 J , PARK-E 0 W / LEEDS , "D ESPECTFULLY announces that he is on a Professional Visit to Bradford , ^ and for the better W Accqmmodation of his Friends , has made Arrangements to attend those Plates , and may be consulted in all the Branches of DENTAL SURGERY as follows , until further Notice : — Every Wednesday and Tliursday , at Mrs . Briyg ' s , fFell-Street , Bradford ; and every Monday , Tuesday , Friday and Saturday , at his Residence , 12 i , Park-Row , Leeds . INCOKEODIBLE KINEEAL TEETH , From One to % complete Set , -which are not only Indestructible , but also incapable of Discolouration . Amongst the advantages of Mr . Eskell's System , one of the principal is , that it cenfers the powers of the most distinct Articulation , and submits this as really an advantage of the utmost importance , but when to it is added the capability of biting the hardest substance , without pain , though last , not least , that it gives the appearance of juvenility to countenances otherwise of an aged appearance . Mr . Eskell wishes to impress upon the Ladies and Gentlemen not to have the least prejudice against his Artificial Teeth , for th ^ ey are both useful and ornamental ; his principle is quite different from any other , it conduces to both beauty and comfort . A new Description of Mineral Teeth that closely resembles nature ; these Mineral Teeth eminently possess every superiority that can be desired over the various substances offered = to the public for similar purposes ; their colour is unchangeable , and they may be had in every gradation of shade , to suit any that may be remaining in the mouth . In point of economy the Mineral Teeth will be found highly advantageous to the wearer , as in durability . Mr . Eskell avails himself of this opportunity to explain the various species of Disease to which the mouth is liable , according to the principles laid down by the most eir'ntnt med ' cal men , convinced that so important a condition as persona » appearance cannot fail of bting interesting . Scaling the Teeth . —This operation when performed by a skilful Dentist , causes not theleast pain and is effected in order to preserve the Teeth from tartared effluvia , to keep them pure and white , and to free the breath from any displeasant odour ; this operation should take place occasionally . Cauterizing the Teeth . —The operation is had recourse to upon the first symptoms of decay , in order to arrest the progress of disease , and which , provided it be done in due time , prevents that acute pain followed by ultimate extraction . Filling the Yacuum of Decayed Teeth . —This process , simple in itself and easy to endure , preserves the enamel of the Teeth in their primitive state , and entirely prevents any portion of ailment or foul air from entering the cavities—tfie general source of offensive effluvia . Separating of the Teeth . —The Teeth , from want of proper attention , are apt in most persons to close and connect themselves with each other , which is generally the chief cause of decay ; in such cases it is particularly advisable to separate them . Great care is required in this operation . ' Fastening Loose Teeth . —Mr . E . during his course of study has adopted a mode of fastening loose Teeth particularly of aged persons , whether arising from neglect or any other cause , which he is happy to say , has proved successful to the full extent of his expectations . Regulating the Teeth . —It is well known that Teeth will often grow too long , and outstretch each otheT , sometimes ohtrnding themselves beyond the "bounds prescribed by the circular formation of the mouth : under such circumstances they require regulating , which gTeatly adds to the agreeable appearance of the countenance , in the laugh , and gives facility to the articulation . The beauties of a well-regulated set of Teeth are so generally acknowledged and admired , that to offer further observatLfl on this head would be superfluous . Fixing one or more Teeth . —The . method adopted in this process of replacing Teeth , renders it impossible to discern the artificial from the natural , without wfe-e spring or showing any fastening whatever . Extraction of the Bvotorihe Fangs of the Teeth , —Although this operation is often dreaded b y the afficted , from the facility which characterizes the performance of his operation , Mr . E . has been most successful in removing aU fearful apprehensions . Fixing complete Sets of Teeth . —Complete sets by the assistance ef a new invented spring , which operates with the action of the jaws , in mastication , &c . will be found , in every respect amply competent to supply the place of their predecessors . Attendance from Ten till Four , at his residence , 12 J , Park Row , every Monday , Tuesday Friday and Saturday . ¦ . '

      , - , - A CERTAIN DISEASE CURED WITHIN ONE WEEK . In consequence of Dr . Wilkinson ' s extensive practice he has considered it advisable to remove from Hunslet , to 60 , bottom of Templar-street ^ for the greater convenience of his patients , where he may be consulted as usual . DR . " WTLEINSON , Surgeon , No . 60 , Bottom of Templar ' s Street , Leeds , continues , with unabated assiduity , to eradicate every species of Infection . In recent cases , a perfect cure is completed within a week , or no charge made for Medicines after the expiration of that period . And in those of the utmost inveteracy , where other Practitioners have failed , a proper perseverance in his plan of treatment insures to the patient , a safe , well grounded , and lasting re-establishment consuited with the greatest secrecy and honour , at his house from nine to one , and from four till nine and on Sundays till two . . •' •' -. ; .- .-. ..: . He hopes that the successful , easy , aad expeditious mode he has adopted , of eradicating every symptom of a Certain Disease , without any material alteration in diet , or hindrance of business , aad yet preserving the constitution in full _ vigour and free from injury , will establish his claims fer . support . As this Disease is one which is likely to be contracted ^ whenever exposure , takes place , it is not like [ many other visitors , once in life , hut on the contrary , one infection may scarcely havebeen removed , when . another may unfortunately he imbibed , therefore the Practitioner requires real judgment in order to treat , each particular Case in such a manner as not merely to remove the present attack , but to preserve the \ constitution unimpaired , in case of a repetition at no distant period . The man of experience can avail himself of the greatest improvements in modern practice , by being able to distinguish between discharges of a specific and of a simple or mild nature , which can only be made by one in dail y practice , after due consideration of all circumstances . In the same manner at birth , appearances often take 1 place in children , which call for a proper knowledge and acquaintance with the disease , in order to - discriminate their real nature , and which may he the means of sowing domestic discord , unless managed , by the Surgeon with propriety and skill . " Patients labouring under this Disease , cannot he too ekutioua - into whose hand : they commit themselves . The propriety of this remark is abundantly manifested , i by the same party frequently passing ^ the ordeal of several ^ Practitioners , before he is fortunate , enough to obtain a perfect cure . The following are some # f the many symptoms that distinguish this 1 Disease '— a general debility , eruptions on the head , face , and body ; ulcerated sore throats , scrofula a swellings in the neck , nodes on the shin bones , cancers , fistula , pains in the head and limbs , wiuct&are - frequently mistaken for rheumatism , &c . &c . ' 2 Patient * in the country , by stating their cases and enclosing a remittance , may have proper remedie sent to the amount , with directions so simple and plain , that parties of either sex may cure themselves .
