N1HlLE YOU sleep, most Of your
w body is building up, regalning
health and strength. But in the mouth,
during the long hours Of night, the re-
lentless enemies of your teeth do their
most serious damage.
These enemies are acids, formed by
the decomposition Of tiny food PARTICLES
left after eating. BY day, the freer flow
of saliva helps to wash acids away. But
at night, unless the teeth are carefully
brushed and these acids counteracted,
they destroy the surface of the enamel,
causing Acid Decay.
Especially at The Danger Line
The Danger Line is just at the edge of
the gums. Food PARTICLES accumulate
here and lrritate the gums, causing them
to reoede and to expose the soft, bony
underpart of the teeth.
Acids eat into this soft tooth structure
readily. Decay begins and extends under
the gum margins The gums become in
fected, and assesses and pyorrhea FIRE,
quently develop Poisons from these
conditions find their way into your body,
often causing rheumatism, heart>disease
and lowered physical vitality.
