Sometimes the early symptoms, such as in measles and syphilis, establish the diagnosis. Focal infections about the mouth and teeth are being better understood every day as the starting point of affections in the gastro intestinal tract, pulmonary, cardiac and joints, etc. Also that many neuralgias about the face and head are caused by infections in the mouth and teeth The dentist should be informed of these various mouth conditions so that he may not jeopardize himself or his patient and that there may be better co-opera- tion between the dentist and the family physician u lunll I F-im In ll I 1 u' I fs Ill ll -S-I N lluullllu auf IND i c-211 El: w ?.'i B a 5- ill' 2'l i i ' 3 iii T t at 5' s 2 ill? rp, ll lqggi-a::'l'nlgf3 6 ,ni-.lII::::lI ll 4, l45j
