A practical treatise on mechanical dentistry . exhibit the marked peculiarities, and the proper arrangement of anartistically designed set of gum or block teeth. The increasedstrength of attachment formed by the greater number of pins alsorenders them more permanent and enduring than single gum made expressly for rubber base were originally manufacturedwith plain platina pins, longer and heavier than those used in con-nection with metallic plates. These, when used, were curved andpressed together, forming loops or hooks to prevent them with-drawing from the rubber. Subsequently, however, the detachmentof the teeth was more securely and certainly provided against bythe substitution of headed pins, which rendered their withdrawalfrom the rubber impossible. For this valuable improvement theprofession is indebted to the late Dr. S. S. White, whose genius,enterprise, and intelligence were so long and unceasingly tributaryto the needs of the dental practitioner. RUBBER OR VULCANITE 113. ^°:.
