PER CURIAM:
James J. Royal appeals the district court's orders
granting Defendants’ summary judgment motions on his 42 U.S.C.
§ 1983 (2006) deliberate indifference to dental needs claims,
and denying his Fed. R. Civ. P. 59(e) motion for
reconsideration. We have reviewed the record and find no
reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s
orders. Royal v. Bassett, 7:08-cv-00222-jlk-mfu (W.D. Va. Dec.
9, 2008; Jan. 8, 2009). We dispense with oral argument because
the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the
materials before the court and argument would not aid the
decisional process.
AFFIRMED
