What causes tooth ache? THE actual cause of tooth ache is now believed to be due to gases, formed inside the tooth during the process of decay. When enough of the tooth material has rotted away and there is left only a thin covering for the nerve, the blood vessels around the tooth nerve swell up and press on the nervecausing tooth ache. The germs that cause the decay-producing acids have a friend in the filmcoat, or tnucin plaque, which forms on teeth. This film glues the bacteria to the teeth, providing a sort of warm shelter for them and even supplies them with food to thrive on. Removal of film has, therefore, become an important problem for dental science. Film clings stubbornly. It defies all ordinary ways of brushing. But science has found a way. Pepsodent Toothpaste first curdles film, when light brushing can remove it in complete safety to enamel. Start using Pepsodent Toothpaste to-day. NZSy PEPSODENT IS MADE IN NEW ZEALAND
