KEEP TEETH WHITE AND BRIGHT WITH PEPSODENT
If your teeth are to be white and glistening, your smile alluring, you must remove film from teeth. For film dulls and discolors them, obscures their natural beauty. And the unfext ... most effective way to remove film from teeth is with Pepsodent Tooth Pasto. Pepsodent is a special film-removing tooth paste. It contains a cleansing and polishing material unexcelled in keeping teeth free from that gummy, sticky substance called film. Yet it does this safely. For Pepsodent contains no grit, nothing that might injure or harm tooth enamel.
PEPSODENT
THE SPECIAL FILM-REMOVING TOOTH PASTE'
Try Pepsodent Tooth Paste today. Note how clean your teeth feel... how much brighter they look... after only one brushing. Then use Pepsodent regularly twice a day.
