Excerpt from The Dental Times, 1865, Vol. 2: A Quarterly Journal of Dental Science I refuse to operate in all cases where the will of my patient is to interfere with my freedom in cutting away dead portions Of enamel, as much as may be necessary to secure firm healthy borders, and to make enduring fillings. I am, perhaps, more lavish in the use of my cutting instruments than many eminent Operators, but the result of more than one hundred thousand fillings sustains and justifies my practice. The fears that the plugs will be seen must be dismissed by the patient, and disregarded by the opera tor, if the safety Of the tooth is the end sought. In the incisors, especially, is firmness in this matter required, and young Operators are Often found yielding to the prejudices of the wrong directed judgment of their unin formed patrons; and it is only in after years, when the teeth are hope lessly crumbled away, that both learn their mistake.

Excerpt from The Dental Times, 1869, Vol. 6: A Quarterly Journal of Dental Science To prepare protoxide of nitrogen for inhalation, then, great care must be taken to preserve its purity; consequently it becomes important to maintain, as nearly as possible, an equal temperature during the process of its manufacture, and, should any nitric oxide to be formed, to deoxidize or remove it, which is best done by a solution of ferrous sulphate, (sulphate of the protoxide of iron, ) and washing in water. From what we have said, this washing in water, and keeping the gas for any length of time over water, must be attended with great loss, as much of the gas is thereby absorbed. This may be, to a great extent, avoided by employing water at an elevated temperature, or a strong solution of common salt for the same purpose. When about to be inhaled as an anaesthetic, great care must be taxen that no oxygen or air become mixed with the protoxide; otherwise the peculiar effects described by Sir Humphry Davy are} observed instead of anaesthesia.
