PYORRHEA
YORRHEA is distressing to have but easy to prevent. For one Po
hundred years dentists throughout the world have recom- mended this preventive: saturate your brush with sparkling, refresh- ing LIQUID SOZODONT the first thing in the morning. Massage your gums briskly until the foamy liquid has brought the blood ting ling to the guns. Rub the teeth thoroughly from gum to the edge of the teeth. Let century-old LIQUID SOZODONT penetrate every crevice between the teeth to remove small particles of food. Use either SOZODONT PASTE or POWDER to thoroughly clean the teeth. This should be done at least twice a week, SUZODONT is free from disagreeable and harmful grit. ·
If you will persist in the combined use
of LIQUID SOZODONT and SOZODONT PASTE or POWDER your gums will resist dread pyombea and your teeth will be free from decay.
