There is on your teeth Shiny film. You can
feel it with your tongue. 1t clings to the teeth,
gets between the teeth and stays.
The tooth brush doesn't end it. The ordinary
de7tifrice does not dissolve it. So il cngs and,
night and day, it may do ceaseless damage.
The Tooth Wrecker
That film is the great tooth wrecker. Most
tooth troubles are traced to it.
The film is what dscolors - not the teeth. It 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,
arc the chief cause of pyorrhea Also of many
other troubles, local and internal.
That is why well-brushed teeth so often dis
color and decay, why tartar forms and pyorrhea
starts. You leave much of that film.
Toc:l, troubles constantly increasing, as
statistics show, despite the wide use Of the tooth
brush. And the reason lies in that film.
