92 PRELIMINARY TECHNICAL PROCEDURES
The systemic effects likely to arise as a result of these
local pathological conditions may be classified as follows,
viz.
(i) Throat affections: such as tonsilitis, pharyngitis, lar-
yngitis, angina, diphtheria, abscess of the cervical glands.
Infections of the middle ear and Otalgia.
(2)
Diseases of the eye; such as iritis, conjunctivitis, kera-
(3)
toscleritis, optic neuritis, strabismus, amblyopia, glaucoma,
paralysis of accommodation, spasms of the muscles of the
lids, paresis and many others.
Diseases of the stomachy intestines, respiratory apparatus
(4)
and viscera; such as dyspepsia and indigestion, gastritis,
constipation, diarrhea, abscess of the liver, pneumonia,
bronchitis, tuberculosis and many others.
General constitutional disturbances; such as lowered
(5)
vitality, anemia, gout, rheumatism and the diseases of sub-
oxydation, as well as abscesses, septicaemia, pyaemia, and
septic infections in general.
Reflex nervous disorders of the eye, ear, face and far
(6)
distant parts.
Lowered mental vigor, especially in children, as well as
(7)
chorea, neurasthenia, epilepsy.
The avenues by way of which infection in the mouth may
travel to distant parts are the blood and lymph streams, the
mucous tracts (eustacion tube, etc.), the respiratory tract
(inhalation), the digestive tract (deglutition), fascia of mus-
cles and also by continuity of tissue. As a final result of
these local and systemic disturbances, certain definite psycho-
logical effects may present, especially in children, such as
vicious temper, untruthfulness, incorrigibihty, degeneracy,
melancholia, and criminal tendencies.
The treatment of these disturbances is both preventive and
curative. The Preventive Treatment is as follows:
