Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Dental Anomalies and Their Influence Upon the Production of Diseases of the Maxillary Bones
The ?ap, left to itself, fitted into the wound by its own weight, and the continuity was entirely complete. The edges were easily brought together and kept united by a twisted suture - this I disposed in sixteen points, in such a manner as to allow a hiatus for the most dependent part; here I placed the threads of a ligature, so as to afford a permanent and easy issue for the purulent ?uids. A fenestral bandage, a coat of cerate, a pledget of lint soaked in cold water, and, outside of all, a bandage round the chin, completed the dressing.
