About this work

Description

This film starts with intertitles describing the contents of the film. The film demonstrates how children can be treated without restraint and induced gently with ethyl-chloride. An intertitle says that the child is encouraged to blow the smell away; induction is via the open drop method. The dentist strokes their right cheek. One of the children is holding a comic which appears briefly in shot. The End.
