will find, we think, that they are using
Pepsodent.
Go get this free tube and try il for
yourself. Note how clean the teeth
feel after using. Mark the absence Of
the viscous film. See how teeth whiten-
as the hlm-coats disappear.
Then let the children use it. Their
teeth need it most. Very few children
reach the age of IS without some tooth
decay.
Let the man who smokes see how it
takes the stained film from his teeth.

teeth feel, how much safer, when
brushed in this new way. Then this

The war on film

Dental science, the world over, is
fighting war on film. Film is that
viscous coat you feel It clings to
teeth, enters crevices and stays. And
most tooth troubles are now traced to
It.
Those troubles have been constantly
increasing. The ordinary tooth paste
does not end film, so the tooth brush
has proved inadequate. Millions know
how well-brushed teeth have discolored
and decayed.

Quick, visible results

Anyone can see and feel what Pep
sodent is doing. No old method Of
brushing ever brought such effects. So
we let this test convince you.
One ingredient is pepsin. Another
multiplies the starch digestant in the
saliva, to digest starch deposits that
cling. The alkalinity of the saliva is
multiplied also, and at once. That is
to neutralize mouth acids which cause
tooth decay.
Two factors directly attack the film.
One OF them keeps teeth so highly pol
ished that film cannot easily adhere.
The effects of Pepsodent come with
every application. We constantly COM
bat, in efficient ways, the teeth's great
enemies. And millions of teeth are
given new protection and new beauty.
