Odol is the first and only preparation for cleansing the mouth and teeth which absolutely counteracts the causes of microbie fermentation. While all other pre- rrations.ure effective drių during the few moments of application, the antiseptic and refreshing power of Odol continues gently but persist- ently for houts athematis, - This absolutely certain effect, seientia- cally proved, is principally dye to sa entirely new and unique property of the preparation which causes it
to penetrate the interstices of the teeth and the mucous membrane of the mouth, to 'à certaît extent im- pregnating them, and thus securing an after eject lasting for hours, which no other mouth-wash car producs, not even approximately
Owing to this characteristic.. peeuilar only to Odel, the whole oral cavity, to its minusest recesses, is completely freed from and protected, against all fermenting prosesset and injurious bacteria.
