I am well aware that these beautifuland harmonious anatomical laws becomeless and less observable in inhabitants oflarge cities, and in those living in highaltitudes and near the sources of largestreams, such as Switzerland, the Tyrol,The Rocky Mountains, Jujui (Argen-tina ). Rio de Janeiro (Brazil), the north raries. I presented at the Society ofStomatology of Paris a young man oftwenty years of age, with thirty-twoteeth; I took the impression of his den-tal arches, and registered the condylepaths by Christensens method. When the models were mounted uponthe articulator, I was surprised to find,on examining the condyle paths, thatthe right path measured 25 degrees, Fig. Diagram representing an edentulous mouth, a, Occlusal plane upon which allthe twelve upper anterior teeth have to be placed. (See Fig. 1, A.) line, parallel to the occlusal plane, a. of Spain, etc. In such high regions wefind affections of the thyroidal glands(goiter) allied with under-developed andcarious teeth. But even if we admit that our contem-poraries have outgrown these laws, whichis far from being- the case, their applica-tion to prosthesis is absolutely indis-pensable, in regard to the mechanism ofmastication as well as to the preservationof the masticatory apparatus. NECESSITY OF REGISTERING BOTH CON-DYLE PAT LIS. The glenoid cavity presents consider-able variations among our con tempo- while that of the left side measured 35degrees, making a difference of tendegrees between one side and theother. Thinking I had made a mistake. Itook the measurement of the condylepath by Gvsis method, and Dr. Solbrigmeasured it by that of Kit nor.
