KOLYNOS cleans and protects the teeth and gums of the entire family. It is recommended by dentists espe- cially for children because of its antiseptic cleansing prop- erties. Dentists know that Kolynos is safe and gentle in action and that it destroya dangerous mouth germs that cause tooth decay. The whole family uses Kolynos-they like its cool, refreshing taste and also its economy, be- cause they use only half as much as ordinary toothpaste.
