Healthy gums guard and preserve this foundation of your teeth. Soft, bleeding, tender or receding guma allow yerler infection to creep beneath them. If unchecked, the genus spread to the bay root sockets, weaken and destroy thera.
Then your teeth become loose and eventually fall out, or must be extracted because Pyorrhea has eaten away their supporting founda- tion. You may have kept the visible surface of the teeth white and glistening by daily brushing-you may have had all cavities skilfully filled-bat all that care has gone for nangh: because you beglected your gums.
Watch your guins if you want to save your teeth.
Prarthocide Powder was compounded for the specific parpose of maintaining and restoring gum health. In addition to its ingredients which keep the teeth white and clean, it is medicated with Dentimol, a germicidal and bealing agent widely used by the dental profession ir the treatment of Prorries at the dentist's chair,
Prorrbocide Powder tones up the gums, stimulates their blood circulation, maintains hardness and firmness, thereby increasing the power to resist Probes infection. Its effectiveness for this pary se has been conclusively proved by thorough tests in clities derotad exclusively to Pyorrhea-study-and research. That is why dentists... everywhere recommend it.
