The fact that gutta-percha as a root-canal fillingis most desirable has also been proved, it would seem con-clusively, by the anray, for the writer has in several casesseen how kindly nature takes to it even when it has beenpushed through the apex, as appears in Fig. 123. In thiscase the root-filling of the canine that had been inserted THE X-RAYS OR RONTGEN RAYS 203 six or seven years previously, was not the cause of thetaking of the radiograph, the gutta-percha not havingcaused the slightest inconvenience.
