(After Dr. Darby.) * American System of Dental Surgery, vol. 1. p. 1004. 422 , OPERATIVE DENTISTRY. Michaels,* through carefully conducted clinical and laboratory investi-gation, has arrived at the conclusion that chemical abrasion or erosion ofthe teeth is due to the constant contact of secretions from the labial glandsin individuals of the gouty or rheumatic diathesis—the hyperacid diathesis—in whom oxidation in the nutritional process is incomplete, resulting inthe formation of acid salts as end-products of metabolism ; and that in allprobability the chemical agent which produces the peculiar phenomena ofthe affection is the potassium sulphocyanate. In proof of this statementhe says, erosion was not present in individuals when the saliva containedammonium sulphocyanate (K 01^ S), while in those whose teeth were thusaffected he invariably found the potassium sulphocyanate in the saliva.
