Prettier Teeth
Safer teeth millions now get them
All slalemenls approved by high denial aulhottlies
They remove the film
This is to present a new method of
teeth cleaning which millions now cm
ploy. That's why you see white, glis
tening teeth wherever you look today.
This is to aslc that you test it without
cost. Leading dentists everywhere ad
vise it. See what it does for your teeth
in ten days.
Most teeth arc dimmed more or less
by a film. Atifirst the film is viscous
you can feel it with your tongue. But
it clings to teeth, enters crevices and
stays.
Most teeth "brushed in old ways have
some film-coat on thern. On some it is
merely cloudy; on some it is black.
And most tooth troubles are now traced
to that film.
How film ruins teeth
That film destroys tooth luster. It
is the film-coat that discolors not the
teeth. Film is the basis of tartar.
It holds food substance which fer
ments and forms acid. It holds the acid
in contact with the teeth to cause decay.
Millions of germs breed in it. They,
with tartar, 'are the chief cause of pyor
rhea, which few escape.
The ordinary tooth paste docs not
dissolve it, so brushing has proved in
adequate. Most people find that wcll
brushed teeth discolor and decay. Sta
tistics show that tooth troubles have
been constantly increasing. And py
orrhea has become alarmingly com
mon. Now science combats it
Dental science, after years of search
ing, has found a way to combat that
film. Able authorities have amply
proved its efficiency. The evidence is
that it brings a new dental era. Mil
lions have already adopted it, largely
through dental advice.
The method is embodied in a den
tifrice called Pepsodcnt a unique and
modern tooth paste. Three great fac
tors are combined to bring the desired
effects.
Pepsodcnt is based on pepsin, the
digestant of albumin. The film is al
buminous matter. The object of Pep
sodent is to dissolve it, then to day by
day combat it.
Pepsin long seemed impossible. It
must be activated, and the usual agent
is an acid harmful to the teeth. But
science has discovered a harmless ac
tivating method, so every day it can
combat the film.
' Quick, visible results
. The Pepsodcnt results arc quick and
apparent.. No one who sees them can
doubt them.
Send the coupon for a 10-Day Tube,
Note how clean the teeth feel after
using. Mark the absence of the viscous
film. See how teeth whiten as the film
coat disappears.
Then remember that this new tooth
beauty means cleaner, safer teeth. It
means that the film, the teeth's great
enemy, is constantly combated. Cut
out the coupon now.
All-important to every child
Nearly all children suffer tooth de
cay before the age of 15, and it often
brings life-long effects. So children
need this protection even more than
adults.
When you see what film removal
means to you, remember what it mean.!
to children too. Pepsodcnt should be
applied and forced between the teeth
twice daily.
