Excerpt from Electro-Radiographic Diagnosis: A Book on the Electric Test for Pulp Vitality, Giving the Technic of Its Use in Detail and Submitting Clinical Evidence of Its Absolute Necessity to Dental Diagnosis

The object of this little book is to help bring the electric test for pulp vitality into its deserved popularity and the writer hopes to accomplish this by doing two things: (1) By showing how frequently the testis necessary to cor rect dental diagnosis and (2) by teaching in detail the technic of its application.

Every dentist who has an X-ray machine, and every dentist who does not have an X-ray machine, Should use the electric test for-pulp vitality. In Short the electric test is of the utmost value to any one who attempts dental diagnosis. _it.is Often absolutely indispensable to correct diagnosis, of which fact the reader will be convinced, I believe, by reading Chapters X and XI.

The writer has had most of the notes used in the writ ing of this little book in his possession since 1916, at that time, I dare say, there were not fifty dentists in the United States using the test. In the past four years the test has commenced to receive a wider recognition. But even yet only a comparatively few dentists use it. The reasons for this, it seems to me are: First, the value and importance of the test are not fully appreciated. Second, the necessity of acquiring knowledge of correct technic is not appreciated. Third, the dental electrodes in use are inadequate. Let us consider each of the foregoing.

First, the value and importance of the test: I believe I am right in saying that, with a few exceptions, the only men to have a really comprehensive idea of the impor tance of the electric test as a diagnostic measure are a few radiodontists. The electric test for pulp vital ity is one of those things which, being well known of, is little known about.
