They remove the film These millions have gained whiter teeth by simply combating film in this new way. Film is that viscous coat you feel. It clings to teeth, gets between the teeth and stays. The ordinary tooth paste does not effec- tively combat it. The tooth brush, therefore, has left much of it intact. _Film absorbs stains, making the teeth look dingy. Film is the basis of tartar. That is why teeth become cloudy and discolored. And some teeth—like smokers’ teeth—be- come badly stained. Film holds food substance which ferments and formsacids. It holds the acids in contact with the teeth to cause decay. Germs breed by millions in it. They, with tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea. Thus most tooth troubles are now traced to film. Those troubles have been constantly Ce ga for lack of a proper film com- tant Now you can fight it Dental science, after long research, has found two ways to fight film.
