| "A clean tooth does not decay" Charles C. Bass, M.D.
|
|
“NO DESCRIPTION or mention of the condition to which attention is directed herein has been found in any of a considerable number of textbooks consulted, embracing dental pathology, dental histology, or periodontal disease.”
“Sometimes an individual wears back his gums and cuts a considerable groove in the tooth at and below the cementoenamel junction, with a stiff toothbrush and abrasive dentifrices.”
“What influence, if any, this condition may have upon any possible repair of periodontoclasia damage remains for future work to show.”
