Clouded by film

Teeth are clouded by a film. It
clings to teeth, gets between the
teeth and stays. Stains enter it,
then the film, if left, forms the
basis of dingy coats. That's why
teeth lose luster. Film is also the
basis of tartar.
Most tooth troubles are now
traced to that film. 1t holds food
substance which ferments and
forms acid. It holds the acid in
contact with the teeth to cause
decay.
Germs breed by millions in it.

Stays on teeth

Under old methods, much of
that film remained on teeth. It
made teeth cloudy. Night and day
it threatened serious damage.
That's why so many brushed teeth
discolor and decay. Tooth troubles
have been constantly increasing.
Now dental science, after long
research, has found two film COM
batants. Able authorities have
proved their efficiency. Now lead
ing dentists almost the world over
are urging their daily use.
A new-type tooth paste has been
created, based on five modern re-
quirements. The name is Pepso-
dent. These two great film COM
batants are embodied in it for
daily application

That is there to digest starch d.

It multiplies the alkalinity of
the saliva. That is Natures neu-
tralizer for the acids that cause
decay.
Every use of Pepsodent thus
gives manifold power to Natures
great tooth-protecting agents. Old
time tooth pastes had the opposite
effect. They reduced mouth aka
