Prophylactic
Tooth Brush
THE tufted bristles of the Pro-phy-lac-tic" Tooth Brush enable you to reach every little crevice between and around your teeth. The curved handle permits you to brush all around the back teeth as easily as those in front.
Pro-phy-lac-tic Tooth Brushes last longer because of the high quality of the bristles.. They are sold only in sanitary boxes. Made
in Adult's, Youth's and Child's sizes.
