smoking. Clouded, yellow stained
teeth. Bad tasting mouth. Worst
of ala stale tobacco breath.
These things quickly destroy
feminine charm-the quality a
man most admires in a woman.
"What can ne do about itP"
women smokers are asking.
Simply use the one tooth paste
specifically created to correct UNI
healthy mouth conditions. This
tooth paste is Pebeco.
Pebeco is different in formula
and action from any other tooth
paste. 1t contains q special salt
that gently stimulates the saliva.
As soon as Pebeco enters your
mouth its fresh, sharp tang starts
the saliva flowing. Effectively it
battles the teeth. Washes away
nicotine deposits. Whitens and
brightens the precious enamel.

keeps sweet. Your whole mouth is cool, clean
