"My gums are still in flamed and sore, but I can close my teeth with comfort, which is some thing that I couldn't do yesterday." 'Fine," said the dentist. "It won't be long before you will be back to normal. You certainly have an ac tive case of Vincent's infection. "In an active or acute case of Vincent's infection such as you have, the gums become red and swollen and bleed easily, and they are usual ly covered by small grayish or yel lowish patches. As you know from experience, the gums are extremely sore to the touch. In very bady cases the patient cannot eat solid food, be cause the gums are so sore that it is painful to close the teeth. Even the pressure of the lips and tongue is painful. The breath has a peculiar and characteristic odor. Sometimes, if the patient's resistance is low and the virulence of the bacteria is high, the disease may spread to the throat and tonsils or even the entire sys tem. Death has been known to occur (from this disease. "The passive or chronic type of the disease is much more prevalent than the active or acute type. Per sons suffering from this chronic in fection often develop a partial re sistance to it and become accus tomed to the mild pain and discom fort. The breath does not have the characteristic oror so noticeable in acute cases. The gums will be only slightly swollen perhaps inflamed in but two or three spots. A patient i suffering from this type of infection i may be completely unaware that he is affected. Thus, he may unwitting ly give the disease to others. The chronic type of trench mouth should not be mistaken for pyorrhea. It is always wise in case of trench mouth, pyorrhea, or any gum inflamation to have a. 'smear' taken of the infected gums and have it examined under a microscope. If there is a great pre dominance of trench mouth germs present, the diagnosis will be con firmed." As Dr. Young talked, he treated Mr. Reynolds' mouth. Before dis missing his patient, he said: 'You must take the utmost precautions, Mr. Reynolds, to avoid infecting oth ers by kissing or other direct con tacts. Burn your toothbrushes and do net attempt to brush your teeth un til we have the disease well under control. Later, buy some new brushes. Have your own eating utensils and towels, both of which should be boiled in soap suds. Don't let anyone use your drinking glass at the office. In order to avoid in fecting others, do not eat in hotels or restaurants until your condition is well under treatment. Further more, unless we eliminate all pock ets where the germs can hide, don't he surprised if you have a recur rence of the disease. Sometimes a case which is seemingly cured may recur from three to six months later, which shows that the bacteria are still present in these hidden spaces. "Vincent's infection, or trench mouth is much more prevalent than is commonly supposed. Anyone hav ing infected gums should go to a dentist at once for a thorough ex amination and proper treatment."
