MILLIONS THRILLED BY MODERNIZED TOOTH PASTE

PEPSODENT alone of all tooth pastes contains IRIUM! Millions long denied the thrill of lovely, brilliant teeth are finding it,again with IRIUM.

Once you change to this modernised tooth paste you bid goodbye to dull, dlugy, film-stained teeth. For IRIUM - being a totally new kind of foaming ingre- deat-first loosens the glue-like film - then floats it away like magle- and safely restores thrilling radiance even to the dullest enamel.
