The reason is this: A new way has been found in Sght film on teeth, and millions now employ it It is also at your command So don't envy such teeth, but get them

That cloudy film

There forms on your teeth a viscous film You can feel it now. It clings to teeth, gets between the teeth and staya.

That film absorbs stains. Then, if left, it forms the basis of ding y coats, including tartar. That's why teeth don't shine.

Film also holds food substance which ferments and forms acids. It holds the acids in contact with the teeth to cause becay, Germa breed by millions in it. They, with tartar, are the chief cause of pyar- thea.

This most tooth troubles, which few escape, are now traced to that

filma.

Now we combat it

Old methods of brushing are not *ciently effective. So nearly everybody suffer from it more or less.

But dental science, after leng research, has fomed two film com-

batants Able authorities have proved their efficiency. Now lead- ing dentists all the world over kre erging their daily use.

A new-type tooth paste has been created, based on modern know?- edge. The name is Pepsodent. These two great film cambatants are embodied in it.

Two other effects Pepsodent is based on modern dental research. It corrects some isukes made in former

greates

It multiplies the starch diges- tant in the saliva. That is there to digest starch deposits which may otherwise ding and form acids.

It multiplies the alkalinity of the- saliva. That is Nature's agen: for neutralizing acids which cause tooth decay.

Thus Pepsodent gives a manā fold power to these great tooth- protesting agents in the mouth.

Watch them whiten

Pepsodent will bring to any home a new dental era. Millions

of people have learned this, and now enjoy its benefits.

Note how clean the teeth feel after using. Mark the absence of the viscous film. See how teeth whiten as the film-coats disappear.
