Abstract
In 1939, Wassmund reported a theory that genyantritis would seldom be caused by alveoler blennorrhea.
In 1940, Morimoto shad entertained a doubt about the truth of the Wassmund's theory, and was able to cite as many as three clinical cases of genyantritis which were believed to be resulted from the alveolar blennorrhea in half a year. Thus, the professor established a new theory opposing the Wassmund's theory.
Within ten subsequent years, Horiguchi and' Miura submitted a report on the same subject at the 51st Otorhinological Convention, and at present, dental genyantritis is frequently reported in the same manner as previonsly suggested by Morimoto.
In view of the circumstances, the writer wishes to present a report on two more cases of dental genyantritis observed during the past half a year, in support of Morimoto's theory and as a token of his feeling of respect and admiration to the approbation of Morimoto, who was then courageous enough to refute the theory advanced by Wassmund.
