DETOXIFIER
FOR MOUTHS
Dental Profession Is
User of Formula
For Diseases

Because bacteria are constantly en-
tcring the mouth with food and drink
and entering the house and adjoin-
ing areas with the air. the diseases
they cause are a source of serious
trouble for human beings. Particles
Of food between the teeth give these
germs the soil they need for growth,
while the warmth and moisture of
the mouth offer further encourage
ment for reproduction.
But 1t is the ferments or toxins
that bacteria throw out hat fire.
~quently produce disease, and not the
bacteria themselves. The Importance
of Identification in the treatment
of mouth disease, therefore, becomes
apparent, since by It's means bactc-
rial ferments are neutralized and
normal rebuilding Of tissue permit
ted.
The William s. Mcrrell company
has earned and has been accorded
the appreciation Of the dental pro-
fession because of their application
Of sodium ricinoleate in the treat
meat of mouth disease. The firm
has produced this detoxifying agent
in Soricin. which is put up in the
form of Detoxol Paste and Detoxol
Liquid. These are used widely by
the dental profession in the treat
ant of mouth diseases and also are
recommended for use by the individ-
ual as directed by the dentist. Both
forms are supplied to druggists by
the international Drug Go. Of
Brownsville.
The scientific discoveries behind
the development Of DetoXol Paste
and Detoxol Liquid were made BY
DR.. W. T.. Larson. head Of the De-
partment Of Bacteriology and lmmu-
nology al the University OF Mime
sofa, and Thomas Il. Hartzell. NJ. ID.
and d. ID. S., former president Amer
lean Dental Association. The re-
search laboratories Of the Merrell
Company then cooperated and made
possible the application Of their dis
coveries to the needs of mankind.
