The
condition
of
the
teeth
is
influenced
to
a
large
extent
by
the
state
of
the
stomach.
Where
the
digestion
is
perfect,
the
breath
free
from
all
foul
odors,
the
teeth
are
less
liable
to
decay
and
tartar
rarely
accumulates.
Where
there
is
any
stomach
disorder,
however,
very
great
care
must
be
taken
to
avoid
a
number
of
unpleasant
symptoms
associated
with
the
gradual
deterioration
of
the
teeth.
If
the
various
suggestions
I
have
made
in
this
volume
for
maintaining
superior
health
are
followed
with
a
reasonable
amount
of
care,
and
the
tooth
brush
is
used
regularly,
in
addition
to
proper
attention
being
given
to
thorough
mastication,
the
teeth
should
be
retained
as
long
as
there
is
use
for
them.
Remember,
however,
the
very
important
suggestion
made
in
another
chapter
in
reference
to
the
value
of
fruit
acid
in
cleansing
the
mouth
and
teeth.
If
you
will
rinse
the
mouth
out
at
frequent
intervals
with
the
juice
of
an
orange
or
eat
part
or
all
of
an
orange,
you
will
be
surprised
at
the
cleansing
influence
of
this
acid
fruit.
Almost
any
acid
fruit
will
be
of
value,
but
the
orange
is
perhaps
the
best
for
this
purpose.
The
free
use
of
water
to
insure
alimentary
cleanliness
together
with
the
acid
fruit
habit
will
form
a
very
superior
insurance
for
our
teeth.
Finally,
and
of
not
least
importance,
the
character
of
the
diet
has
a
great
influence
on
the
teeth.
You
cannot
keep
the
teeth
sound
and
strong
if
the
foods
you
eat
do
not
contain
the
material
out
of
which
teeth
are
built.
If
the
food
elements
that
build
teeth
and
bone
are
lacking,
you
cannot
expect
the
teeth
to
last
long.
A
great
hue
and
cry
has
been
raised
about
the
poor
teeth
of
the
school
children
of
to-day,
and
an
effort
is
being
made
to
teach
the
children
to
brush
their
teeth.
Of
course
this
is
good
as
far
as
it
goes,
but
it
does
not
go
far
when
the
children
are
fed
upon
a
diet
that
is
defective.
When
you
find
the
child
of
a
poor
family
given
a
diet
of
little
more
than
white
bread
and
coffee
you
can
absolutely
depend
upon
it
that
his
teeth
are
crumbling
and
decaying.
No
other
result
is
possible,
no
matter
if
the
greatest
of
care
is
used
to
keep
the
teeth
well
brushed
and
clean.
