PREFACE

TO THE SECOND EDITION

A SECOND edition of these " Notes " having been
called for, it has been found necessary to con-
siderably revise and enlarge them in order to keep
pace with the march of dental progress.

The scheme of the first edition is adhered to,
inasmuch as no attempt is made to write a com-
plete treatise on " The Treatment and Filling of

Teeth," but merely to allude to certain points in
operative dentistry which have particularly in-
terested the writer.
It would perhaps be better if the title were

" Notes on the Filling and Treatment of Teeth,"
but the original title (which was chosen because
the treatment of a diseased tooth comes before the
filling) is retained to avoid confusion.
