Jacoby’s Tips On BridgeBy Oswald & James Jacoby

Some of the better-known bridge players’ diseases are: no-trumpitis, overbid- osis and plain laziness.

Declarer’s astigmatism, which consists of unwilling­ness to look dummy over, is one of the more virulent

forms of laziness. When combined with overbidosis. it can be deadly.

South’s six-c!ub cal! was an overbid but dummy came down like a Christmas tree. South ruffed the diamond lead and saw that, if hearts broke 4-3, he should be able to set the suit up and make his contract. He played the ace and another heart to ruff in dummy. Back to his hand with a second diamond ruff and a t h i r d heart ruff showed that hearts would break. He led a low trump

to his king and, when East showed out, South stopped for a moment. The pause be­came longer and longer, but it failed to refresh.

He did ruff a fourth heart and returned to his hand by overtaking dummy’s queen of trumps with his ace. This set up a trump trick for West and South lost that trick and the spade finesse.

If South had done some thinking at trick one, his play to trick two would have been the ace of trumps. When E a s t showed out. South would have seen that his hope of success would lie with the spade suit. He would have led a spade to dummy’s jack at trick three. East would have taken his king and done anything he wished, but he wouldn’t be able to beat the slam. South would ruff a diamond low and a spade high after tak­ing his ace and discard dum­m y's last diamond on the ace of hearts to make the rest of dummy’s cards good.

Gums j\eedn’t Bleed In Teeth Cleaning

By W I L L I A M L A W R E N C E , D.D.S.

DEAR DR. LAWRENCE: Every time I get my teeth cleaned at the dentist’s, I lose about a quart of blood. My bib is bloody, the hygien­ist's fingers and instruments are bloody, the gauze wipes are bloody, and the cuspidor is bloody. Is all this blood­letting really necessary?— Mr. Milton L.

DEAR MI L T O N L.: It sounds as though you’ve had a pretty bad time. But the tableau you present is some­what exaggerated, isn’t it? It can’t be quite that bad. but I think I know what you mean. Teeth cleaning can assume proportions of a bat­tlefield spectacle.

It’s said that everyone has some degree of gingivitis, or inflammation of the gums. Therefore, any instrumenta­tion applied to teeth for re­moval of tartar will cause some bleeding.

With that established, it’s prudent to say that oral pro­phylaxis doesn’t have to be a b l o o d l e t t i n g process! Scraping tartar from tooth surfaces can normally be ac­complished without pain and without digging into tender, sensitive gums to the. extent of producing trauma, lacer­ation and excessive bleed­ing.

Gum tissue is attached to the necks of teeth. However, this attachment is NOT at the edge of the gums but about 1/16-inch below the edge. This unattached gum is called the “free margin of the gum.” Tartar and debris become lodged in this area and act as “foreign bodies” which irritate the gums.

The main purpose of pro­phylactic treatment is to re­move tartar and debris from the clinically exposed sur­face of teeth AND from the free margin of the gum.

Normally, if this operation is done carefully, with sharp instruments so that little pressure is needed, pain and bleeding are minimal. It’s when instruments are forced below the free margin, tear­ing the underlying attach­ment, that pain and bleeding occur.

Lacerating the gum at- t a c h m e n t is not only an acute horror to patients, but it can result in permanent damage to teeth and gums.

causing gingivitis, periodon­tal disease and other infec­tions.

Oral prophylaxis, or teeth cleaning, is probably the most worthy service a den­tist can offer his patient. It rids the teeth of crusty for­eign bodies which c a u s e many dental ills, and it gives the hygienist and den­tist an opportunity to exam­ine your mouth to see if soft tissues are healthy and teeth free of cavities.

Prophylaxis should be at least a twice-a-year activity. No dental health program is c o m p l e t e without regular and frequent prophylactic treatm ent and full mouth ex­amination.

Please send your questions about

dental health to Dr. Lawrence in

care of this paper. W hile he cannot

answer each letter personally, letters

cf general interest will be answered in this column.
