The war on film Dental science in now fighting the cause of most tooth
troubles.
Tim in that viscous coat you feel. It clings to teeth. Under old incthods of tooth brushing, much of it remains.
It becomes discolored, then forms Gingy coats. That is why so many tect look cloudy.
Film also causes most tooth troubles. It holds food substance which fermenta and forms acid. It hoide the acid in contact with the teeth to cause decay, Germa breed by millions in it. They, with tar- tar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea. These troubles became almost universal when that film was left
on teeth.
Modern research has discovered two effective film combatants, One disintegrates the film at all stagen of formation. One removes it with. out harmful scouring..
Tests have proved that these inethode mean a new era in teeth
cleaning. A new-type tooth paste has been created to apply them. daily. The name is Pepsodent.
Now the use of Pepsodent has spread the world over, largely by. dental advice.
Look at what Pepsodent does The use of Pepsodent will bring at once a new conception of clean teeth..
Protect the Enamel
Pépaodent disintegrates the film, then removes it with on agent far softer than enamel. Never use a film combatant which contains harsh grit.
It does more than fight film. It multiplies the alkalinity of the saliva, which is there to neutralise mouth acids. It multiplies the pty, alin in saliva, which is there to di- gest starch deposits on teeth.
These combined effects will be a revelation to you.
