nIGGs, DISEASE DEFINED.
What Grit win Do When Persistent.
Used In the Mouth.

What Grit VIII Do When Persistently
Used In the Mouth.
One of the commonest diseases of
the teeth is called Riggs Disease. 1t
was discovered by DR., Riggs OF Hart
ford. and takes his name. 1t is q re-
cession of the gums, and unless Inherit
ed it is usually caused by the accumu-
lation of tartar near the gums. AS
the tartar forms on the teeth, nature
shrinks from it and the gums gradu-
ally draw away. This leaves the teeth
exposed and they soon become sensi-
tive.
Imagine, if you can, the significance
of the claims that a dentritice Will re-
move tartar! 1t simply means that
preparations are loaded with grit that
grinds into the sensitive part of the
teeth and encourages soreness ana de-
cay. The dentist alone should remove
tartar, and then you should use Pearlo-
dento, which is free from grit In the
first place, and which will not only re-
duce the accumulation of tartar to a
healthful minimum, but will stimulate
the gums and prevent soreness at the
roots of the teeth. Pearlo-dento is a
soft polish, delicious in flavor, and the
ideal preparation for cleansing the
mouth. 1t will counteract the harmful
tendency of decomposition of food in
the crevices of the teeth, will cut and
remove all grease and neutralize the
acids in the mouth that encourage de-
cay.
If you want an ideal preparation to
help you do what your dentist wants
you to do-preserve your teeth-there
is only one in the market. This one is
Pearlo-dento. Look at the violet boxes
containing Pearlo-dento at your drug
