DENTIFRICE and MOUTH
WASH
On your brush Vince looks and is used like any other dentifrice. But in your mouth in contact with moisture, thousands of tiny bubbles of oxygen are released in a pleasant, antiseptic cleansing action which reaches every part of your mouth.
For a mouth wash and gargle, about a teaspoonful of Vince is placed in a glass of lukewarm water. Rinsing the mouth vigorously and gargling with this solution aids in clearing away accumulations of sticky mucus and the fine bubbles of oxygen act as a deodorizing agent, leaving the mouth in truly clean, sweet and hygienic condition.
Ask your Dentist.
