They fight the film

This new way eombats 6lm-that viseous
film you feel. That is what clouds teeth and
what wrecks them. Most tooth troubles are
now traced to film.
Film clings to teeth, enters crevices and
stays. If not removed It hardens. Then
month after month, between your dental
cleanings, it may do ceaseless damage.
It is the hlm-coat that discolors not the
teeth. Film is the basis Of tartar. It holds
food substance which ferments 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 pyorrhea.
The ordinary tooth paste does not dissolve
film, so the tooth brush leaves much of it in
tact. Thus very few people escape tooth
troubles, despite the daily brushing.
Now dental science has evolved a film COM
blatant. Five years of tests have amply proved

Sent on request

A ten-day test of this new method is sup
piled to all who ask. Thus millions have
seen the results of It.
Pepsodent is based on pepsin, the digestart
of albumin. The film is albunlinous matter.
The object of Pepsodent IS to dissolve It, then
to day by day combat 1t.
Pepsin must be activated, and the usual
agent is an acid harmful to the teeth. So this
method long seemed barred But science has
discovered harmless activating method, 50
active Pepsin can be every day applied.
