Under the game is the important foundation-the bony root socket.- which hold the teeth in place.
Healthy gums guard and preserve this foundation of your teeth. Soft, bleeding, tender or receding gums allow Prarthes infection to creep beneath them. If unchecked, the germs spread to the bony root sockets, weaken and destroy thems.
Then your teeth become loose and eventually fall out, ormaat be extracted because Prorrhea 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 Elled-but all that care has gone, for nanght because you neglected your gunk.
Watch your gars if you want to save your teeth...

Pyanthocide Powder was compounded for the specific purpose of maintaining and restoring gum health. In addition to its ingredients which keep the teeth white and clean, it is medicated with Dentinol, a germicidal and healing agent widely used by the dental profession. ir the treatment of Pyarthes at the dentist's chair.
Pyorrbocide Powder tones up the gums, stimulates their blood circulation, maintains hardness and firmness, thereby increasing the power to resist Pyorrhea infection. Its effectiveness for this pary, 200 has been conclusively proved by thorough tests in clinics devoted exclusively to Prorrhea study and research. That-is why dentists everywhere recommend it.
