Pepsodent is based on pepsin, the digest

Pepsin once seemed impossible. Thrust be
activated, else it is inert. The usual activating
agent is hydrochloric acid, which is harmful
But science has now discovered means of

Pepsodent, that agent is combined with pep

That fln-the source of these many
troubles-is not removed by ordinary brush
ing. Most people already know that
Despite the daily brushing, teeth disco1or
and decay. Tartar accumulates. At frequent
intervals one must visit dentist, to have the
teeth cleaned by machine. And most people,
soon or late, suffer from pyorrhea.
1t is evident that old-time methods do not
save the teeth. And the whole reason lies in
that film.
Three years ago way was found to end that film
from day to day. It is now combined in a dainty
denrice called Pepsodent To countless people it is
bringing constant tooth protection.
The facts are being told through dentists. Also
to people direct. And to prove the facts quickly we
are offering one-week tube, which we urge you to

Old-Time Methods
Always Fail
AS Every User KNOWS

Modern science has proved that film or
teeth is the cause of nearly all tooth troubles
1t is that Shiny film which you feel with
your tongue. It clings to the teeth despite
ordinary brushing. 1t gets into crevices anc
stays. That film absorbs stains, so the teetf
seem discolored. 1t hardens into tartar. L
holds food particles which ferment and form
acid. It holdsGhe acid in contact with the
teeth-the causeof all tooth decay.
Being alburlinous, that film breeds germs
1t contains millions of germs, of which "A pei
cent are streptococci.
Those germs, with tartar, are the chic
causes of pyorrhea. The germs enter the
veins. A large percentage of serious diseases
are now traced to this mouth Infection.
