![CERTIFICATES, . &c. Tue following letter was presented to the Author by Sir Astley Cooper (Serjeant Surgeon to the King), who received it from Mr. Bell, the Lecturer on the Anatomy and Diseases of the Teeth, at Guy’s Hospital : “ My dear Sir Astley, “T have carefully examined Mr. Scott’s Artificial Teeth, and have no hesitation in saying that I consider them infinitely superior to any thing of the kind hitherto produced. They have al] the advantages of indestructibility which have been claimed for for- mer inventions of the sort, and approach as nearly to the appearance of nature as I believe it is possible for art to effect. “ T am, my dear Sir Astley, “« Very respectfully, yours, ‘“‘ THOMAS BELL. “ Sir Asttey Cooper, Bart. Conduit Street.” “ The foregoing Letter has been addressed by Mr. Bell to me, and I have thought it but justice to hand it over to Mr. Scott. ‘¢ ASTLEY COOPER. “ March 22, 1830.”](https://iiif.wellcomecollection.org/image/b33093878_0019.jp2/full/800%2C/0/default.jpg)
