Excerpt from Methods of Filling Teeth: An Exposition of Practical Methods
Here are already so many text-books that the question might T be asked, Why another My reply gives my excuse for my intrusion. Without designing to criticise the methods of other writers, 'i would yet call attention to the fact that many have given us works which are largely compilations. These authors have seemed loath to leave anything unsaid which is pertinent to their subjects. In their efforts to be fully comprehensive they have quoted freely from others, giving pros and cons by men of equal authority, till the student who is a beginner is bewildered in his effort to choose. To avoid this, I decided to describe in my book only such methods as I have myself tested, believing that the student will be more benefited by adopting a single successful mode of practice than by essaying the various methods of many men.
This has involved a two-fold result. First, and most important, the teaching becomes dogmatic.
The charge has been freely made that writers are not skillful dentists. This is because theory and practice are so often at vari ance. I have endeavored to write a work which would be as practical as words could make it. There is not a case described that has not occurred in my practice. There is not a method advocated that I have not tested.
