OUR TEETH Has no one been struck by the fact that, in spile of the regular daily cleansing with tooth soaps and pastes, the teeth, and particularly the back teeth, frequently become decayed and hollow ? Is not that a convincing proof that iooth-soaps and tooth-pastes are en- g tirely inadequate for | fllllff 1 the purpose ? Our ft Wty§§ J teeth arc not so oblig- \ Yo* g ing as to decay only j in places when we /fl can conveniently reach lf\ them with the tooth- g \ I brush. On tho \ S S i' contrary, it is just \ a iff in those localities u | |/ which are difficult of \g v access, such as the <ls backs of the molar teeth, the interstices between the teeth, hollows and cracks, that the decay and destruction of the teeth appear most frequently, and are most likely to occur. In consequence, if anyone wishes to preserve his teeth A. intact—that is to say, to keep &j| them healthy—this can be i Ws. e^ec * e d m onc wa y on b': by Up daily cleansing and rinsing the mouth and teeth with the antiseptic dentifrice Odol. During the process | of rinsing this preparation i /c/irfrata«'(7.yu'/i(;;r,reacliing B alike the hollows in the i I teeth, the interstices between \ | them, and the backs of \L $ the molars. Odol destroys the microbes and arrests all bacterial and fermentation processes which attack the teeth. It follows that everyone who uses Odol regularly every day takes the greatest care of his teeth and mouth that scientific discovery has up to the present time made possible.
