At top are three scenes of the unavoidable causes of dental appointment delays: a man with a terrible toothache asks to be seen; a woman faints in the dental chair and needs time to recover; a man finds the dental drill so painful that he asks the dentist to wait before continuing. Below are three scenes of avoidable causes of delays: a dentist stands in an office holding appointment cards of patients who have not arrived; two women in stylish clothes arrive simultaneously at the dentist office door, one is late and one is early; a woman stands with her hand on her hip, surrounded by her family and dog, and informs the dental assistant that the dentist should see them all

"The dentist, short, fat, and bald, stands in back view on a low stool, his knees pressed against the chair, his left arm round the victim's neck; he tugs at an upper tooth. The thin elderly patient raises her left leg in agony, overturning the folding wash-stand on which the dentist's appliances are spread. These include a basin, cup (both spilling their contents), a double set of teeth, a hammer, and a stoppered jar which falls against a large pier-glass, starring it. Both are unaware of the accident, though a little dog barks from under the table. The glass reflects dentist and patient, showing the latter gripping the arm of the chair. There is a window (right), the lower part screened by a slatted green shade. Above this dangle teeth with large blood-stained roots. On a chest of drawers-bookcase are laid out sets of false teeth. The books are Warbler; Winter in London; Lock on the Gums; Miseries of Human Life [Beresford, see See British Museum catalogue No. 10815, &c]; Bible; Tales of the Devil; Tommy Two Shoes; Treatise on Tooth Powder & Brushes; Feast of Wit; Tales of Terror, and two big volumes of Frankensteiv [sic] [Frankenstein by Mary Shelley, published 1818]. The room is carpeted to the wall."--British Museum online catalogue
