"a TO THE TEETH.-Dr. H. |. BOwditch and
other scientific gentlemen of Boston, have, by the
of powerful Microscope, discovered that the
TEETH of every individual are surrounded by nume-
animal and vegetable Parosites. These conclu-
sions based upon examination of matter deposit
ted upon the teeth and of more than forty ind
viduas, selected from all classes of society, and in
every variety Of bodily condition, and none found
free from them, except three who had been in
the habit of using SOAP as dentifrice. Experiments
tried upon them with all the popular detergents,
such Orrs, Charcoal, pulv. Bark, Tooth Wash, So
da, &C., &c, which did not impair their vitality in the
least. The application of Soap however, destroyed
them instantly. Wemay thence inter, that Soap is
the best and most proper. specific for cleansing the
Teeth.
In view of the above important discovery and with
the encouragement and patronage most OF our len
tihe men, have been experimenting for long time,
until have succeeded in combining with Soap, some
of the most important articles used in Dentrce,
entirely destroy the taste Of Soap, while it renders it
still eiectual in cleansing the Teeth The high
premium awarded to this article at the late
lair of the American Institute, New York, October,
1850.
1t is prepared in the most clearly manner possible,
from the chosest materials and free from all impuri
ties, which generally used in Soap made for other
purposes. The Soap Dentrice is the only proper spe
cfic for freeing the mouth from those Disgusting impu
rites which rapidly promote putrfacton and destroy the
Teeth.
For the purpose of keeping the Soap cean every
cake is inclosed 10 neat case, at the low price of IS
cents; cheapest article before the public. One cake will
last at least year.
The public are cautioned against counterfeit ar.
tice, made by unprincipled person. Each cake
will have the proprietors name stamped on it and it will
future be accompanied with the drawings representing
lhe Parasites they appeared under the Microscope.
Ii there any value in the judgment and experience
OF eminent and scientific minds please read the follow
ing recommendations:
CAMBRIDGE LABORATORY, July, 1850.
Mr.. WATERS Il have submitted the Soap Denti-
fnce, prepared by you, to chemical examination, and
find it remarkably free from impurities and we'll adap
ted for the purpose intended Such article has long
been desideratum; as the ordinary Soaps generally
contain mineral coloring ingredients, and such other
impurities as render them unfit for cleansing the teeth
DAVID A. WELLS, Analyt'l Chem.
New YORK, December g. 1850
Thave made Chemical examination of CDR. Wa
ers Tooth Soap, and find to contain the proper in
gradients OF pure Soap together with pleasant Ar
omatic Vegetable substances. There is nothing in it
that will mjure the Teeth in the least degree; but on
the contrary, would tend to prevent the formation
OF Tartar upon them.
