Most people keep two brushes, to use them day about, in turn. The bristles of the brush should be stiff, and you should choose a brush whose bristles can penetrate into the finest openings that lie between the teeth. More important than this, you must clean your teeth from behind with the brush as thoroughly as you clean them from in front, for diseases of the teeth usually begin at the back.
There are two ways of cleaning the teeth: one is the right way, and the other is the reverse of it. First, your cleaning must be vigorous, for gentleness does no good here; and do not be content to clean with horizontal strokes only, but with upward and downward strokes as well. If you notice a black spot on your teeth, take a piece of dental floss and clean that place thoroughly, for decay of the teeth often follows the appearance of these spots. Indeed, you would do well to pass a piece of dental floss between all your teeth, after brushing them, before you go to sleep; and you would also do well to dip the piece of floss in an antiseptic solution before using it.
The best agent for whitening the teeth and countering the acids at the same time is ordinary table salt. If you sprinkle a quantity of it on a dry brush and clean your teeth with it, it will whiten them more than any other cleanser. And if you mix it with carbonate of soda, you will get an even better result.
It is well known that a smile
lights up the gloomiest of faces and lends beauty to ordinary ones — provided your teeth are sound and clean. So, Madam, you must attend to your teeth, and remem
ber that they are a vital part of your body: tend them with your care, and they will tend you with health and add to your loveliness and beauty.
Get Rid of That Influenza with 'Aspro'
Get rid of that influenza by using 'Aspro'
Two tablets of 'Aspro' with a hot drink at the first sign of influenza are the quickest effective way of meeting it. Follow this with further doses, and you will find that the headache and the oppressive fever lessen gradually until they vanish. 'Aspro' is distinguished by its three effects: it brings the fever down quickly by its anti-fever properties; it doubles the healthy secretion of the skin, which helps nature to expel the poisons through the pores; and it does away with the sensation of pain and fatigue that makes the patient miserable.
'Aspro' relieves and soothes, and in a short time restores health and vigor!
