Better teeth-safer teeth-in a week

The prettier teeth you see every- where now probably came in this way.

The owners accepted this new method. They found a way to combat film on teeth. Now, as long as they live, they may enjoy whiter, cleaner, safer teeth.

The same way is open to you, and your dentist will urge you to take it.

The war on film

Dentists, the world over, have declared a war on film. That is the cause of dingy teeth-the cause of most tooth troubles.

A viscous film clings to the teeth, gets between the teeth and stays.. Old brushing methods left mach of it intact. Then it formed the basis of thin cloudy coats, includ- ing tartar, Most people's teeth loit luster in that way.

Film also holds food substance which ferments and forma acid. It holds the acid in contact with the teeth to cause decay. Germs breed by millions in it. They, with tar- tar, are the chief cruse of pyorrhea.. Very few people have escaped these troubles caured by film.

Ways to combat it Dental science, after long re- scarch, has found two

ways to combat that film Able southorities have amply proved their offelenty.

So leading dentists the world over now advise their daily ust.

A new-type tooth paste has been crated, avoiding old mistakes. The name is Pepsodent: It does what modern science seeks. These two great film combatants are em. bodied in it

Aids nature's fight

Pepsodent also multiplies Na- · ture's great tooth-protecting agents in the month One is the starch digestant in aaliva. That is there to digest starch deposits which cling to teeth. In ferment- ing they form acid..

It also multiplies the alkalinity of saliva. That is there to neutral": ire mouth acids, the cause of tooth decay,

Thus Pepsodent gives to both these factors a manifold effect.

Show them the way Note how clean the teeth feel after using. Mark the absence of the viscous film. Sèo how' teeth' -whiten as the film-costs disappear. One week will convince you that Pepsodent brings a new era in tooth protection. Then show: the results to your children. Teach them this way. Modern dentists advise that children use Pepsodent from the time the first tooth up- This is important to you and
