It is so pure, it is so mild and cleansing, that this "dentists' dentifrice" is ideal for children. Young teeth need exceptional care. Fully 85% of all molars coming through the gums contain tiny surface cracks or fis- sures—the breeding place of future trouble unless they are watchfully cleaned with a safe dentifrice, and checked also by your dentist. Health authorities also recommend that you clean and mas- sage the gums, even of infants, and urge that children's gums receive regular care. And care of the gums is the other function of Forhan's. dentifrice a dentist, This was developed by R. J. Forhan, D.D.S. He prepared a dentifrice which gives the teeth a wonderfully gentle and thorough cleansing—and claims to do nothing more for the teeth. But he added another benefit which his practice had shown him was important—the benefit of a preparation used everywhere by dentists in the care of the gums. In fact, this treatment for the gums, also originated by Dr. Forhan, was the starting point of his excellent dentifrice. Use Forhan's in the mouth of youth—and to keep the mouth of youth into middle age. When teeth are sound and gums are healthy is the time to adopt this excellent dentifrice. Let it cleanse the teeth and add its help to the care of the gums. Used with massage at the time of brushing, it livens circula- tion, and aids the gums to stay young and firm. NOW ON THE AIR!
