(Radiograph by Pancoast, of Philadelphia.) Case in the practice of Dr. Robert H. Ivy, offjg. 250. Philadelphia. The patient had suffered from neu- ralgia of the mandibular division of the fifth nerveon the right side, for two years. In February, 1911, she was treated byan alcohol injection of thi> division, which gave relief from pain for sixmonths, after which the trouble returned, but not so severely as January, 1912, a skiagram was made, showing a dense spot in then of the first molar tooth, and in close relation to the inferior dentalnerve. This is so dense as to appear like a piece of tooth root, but whencut down upon with the surgical engine, nothing but dense bone wasfound. The patient has been without neuralgia since the operation, thoughit is too soon yel to say whether the relief will be permanent. THE USES OF THE RADIOGRAPH IX DENTISTRY 217
