FEW PEOPLE fully realize the
great strides made in Modern
Dentistry and only a few den
tists have kept abreast of the ad
vance. It is easier to follow along
the old beaten paths and much less
expensive. Modern Dentistry calls
for Modern Appliances backed by
constant study and supplemented by
the highest grade of skill. Modern
Dentistry has robbed the practice of
its most disagreeable features. The
torture and nerve-racking methods
so much feared by the general pub
lic are things of the past at this
office and only encountered at of
fices where the practice is not strictly
modern and scientific. Will it pay
you to experiment when the most
scientific treatment is at your dis
posal at the same price charged
for inferior work elsewhere?
DR. B. E. WRIGHT
INFERIOR WORK is dear at
any price. It is only a question
of a short time when the work
will have to be done over by a man
possessing the requisite skill. It is
much better for half a dozen rea
sons to have it done right at first.
Some of my patients are from the
best known families in Portland,
who entrusted me with their
work when I commenced the prac
tice of my profession in this city 14
years ago and are still my patrons.
Today I enjoy the largest dental
practice in the Northwest, which in
itself is sufficient guarantee that I
fulfill all of my promises. All of my
work is conducted with skill, gen
tleness and a thorough regard for
your feelings and nerves.

Porcelain Work
A missing tooth will spoil the appearance of the pret
tiest mouth, as shown in the illustration to the left.
Now, some people don't like the appearance of gold
crowns. So, in that case, I supply a porcelain crown,
which looks as well as 'your natural teeth, with the re
sult shown in the illustration 'on the right. Where pa
tients object to the yellow metal, porcelain inlays make
an excellent substitute, and are' favored by a. great
number of people, especially women. It is almost im
possible'to detect porcelain crowns' or inlays. . . , ,

Bridge Work
The immense advantages and possibilities of bridge
work in the hands of a skilled dentist are not fully
understood by the general public. It is generally sup
posed that where most of the teeth are missing a plate -
is the only recourse.
p-") No tiling is further from
Nfl ZhKS F . the truth. , If you have
two firm teeth we can at
tach a bridge, without a
plate, that, will be perr
fectly firm, look as well
as natural teeth and chew
your food to your entire satisfaction. Nothing looks
worse than missing teeth, not to speak of the injury to
your health. Delay makes matters worse, so you had
better decide to have that bridge made at once. It
won't take long.
Plate Work
If your plate is fitted well it will perform its work satisfactorily,
fill out those sunken cheeks and improve your appearance a thou-
sandfold. I guarantee every plate to fit perfectly. Badly-fitted
plates drop out and cause untold annoyance. Avoid trouble by
having your plate made here.
Fair Prices
While I don't wish to be classed with the cheap mem
bers of the dental profession, my prices will be found
extremely reasonable no higher than the average den
tist charges. In return for a moderate fee, I give you
everything that is best in the practice of high-class
modern dentistry. Perhaps I would be justified in ask
ing higher prices, but I prefer to live and let live, and
am satisfied so long as my patients are. Call and I. will
tell you what work is needed you can have it done at
your convenience. . ,
