This grim foe whici. ignores the teeth and attacks the gums robs 4 out of 5 after forty and thousands younger. Take this precaution: See your dentist every six months. And start using Forhan’s for the Gums, today. As a dentifrice alone, you would prefer it. Without the use of harsh abrasives, it helps to keep teeth clean and restore their natural whiteness. Also it protects them against acids which cause decay. But Forhan’s is more than an ordinary dentifrice. If used regularly and in time, it helps to firm gums and keeps them sound and healthy. And Pyorrhea seldom attacks healthy gums. Get a tube of Forhan’s today! Use this dentifrice every morning and night. Massage your gums daily with it, following directions in booklet that comes with tube. This good habit is health insurance. Two sizes— 35c and 60c. Formula of R. J. Forhan, D. D. S.
