Excerpt from The Student's Manual and Hand-Book for the Dental Laboratory AT the urgent advice of members of the profession, I have prepared this work, for which there seems to be a place in the laboratory of the young dentist, to say nothing of the older members of the profession, who, in these days of rubber plates, have had little experience in metal work. The text books are too diffusive, embodying too many methods for the same object, confusing to the student, and inconvenient as hand-books. This book will embody the result of forty years' experience in the dental laboratory and exclusive attention to prosthetic dentistry, furnishing methods which have been thoroughly demonstrated as simple and effective, producing satisfactory results.
