Dental science answers the question of what leads to tooth decay by blaming food particles that have been permitted to remain between the teeth Germs formed in and by this putrefying lood produce acide which at tack and dissolve the teeth

made recently in the laboratories of The Pepsodent Co., where a new and revolution- ary film-removing material was developed. This new discovery is contained in Pepsodent Tooth Paste exclusively. As it is twice p salt as the material most commonly used, Pepsodent is looked upon as the modem standard of safety. At the same time this new material stands unique in its power to cleanse and polish teeth.
Use Pepsodem Tooth Paste twice a day ser your dentist at least twice a year.
