*On Second Dentition, this is the best if not the only complete work extant; but it has for a long time remained either wholly unknown to practitioners, or they have only resorted to it as a work of refference, without being able to devote sufficient time to master the difficulties of a foreign tongue, in order thus to fully understand its contents. A treatise on this part of the science, has long been needed in our own language; and with a view of supplying this want, the translator contemplates presenting in a short time, the whole work to the American public, accompanied with numerous notes and an introduction.
