Important Advance In Solving 01
Problems of Tooth Decay Are Made
By American Dental Association
nctt» of

CHICAGO, 111., Dec. What
dentists believe is s tremendous for-
ward step towards solving the mys-
tery of caries, “the most prevalent
of all diseases,” has just been tak-
en by, th^ American Dental .Associa-
tion in a monumental compilation of
data gathered from all comers of
the world by the ADA research com
mission.
Caries is the scientific name for
tooth decay, an affliction common to
all mankind. Like the “common
cold” and cancer, its causes are
shrouded in mystery.
The new book, just off the press,
has not been copyrighted and is
described as "an ‘open book’—for
unrestricted use in the advancement
of research, and for the promotion
of knowledge and efficiency in oral
hoalth-service.”
‘This accumulation of data,” de-
clared Dr. P. C. Lowery of Detroit,
chairman of the ADA research com-
mission, in the foreword, “is Ob-
viously the first necessary step to-
ward a solution of the problem of
dental caries.”
Dr. William J. Gies, secretary Of
the Advisory Committee on Re-
search in Dental Care of the Amer-
ican Dental Association, voiced the
hope that its publication might
help to make available philanthropic
and public funds , for further studies
