Don't take chances with that Smile!

As toon as you see a warning tinge of 'pink' on your tooth brush, visit your dentist.

Nothing serious may be implied, but he is the one to decide. He may tell you it is "simply that your gums are sensitive because to-day's soft foods do not supply them with exercise”. All the treatment you may need is "the helpful stimulation of Ipana Tooth Paite and gum massage",

Brush your teeth with Ipana every morning and evening; then mastage the gums vigorously-with-lpana on the fingertip. This induces whiter, more lustrous teeth; armer, healthier gums.
