Dr. Painless
Parker Says:
Accepted Credit brings you
dental plates on No-Money-Down
Plan. You have until
next month for your first pay
ment . . . other payments can
be made as you prefer by the
week or month. Enjoy the ex
perience of seeing and wearing
plates before paying.
COMPARE
Transparent Plates
With Old-Fashioned Kind
Call at Dr. Painless Parker's offices and
decide for yourself the advantages of
plates made with gums that match your
own and a clear palate -that reflects sur
rounding mouth tissues. They are lighter
... of more graceful design ... natural in
their coloring time-tested as to balance
and of enduring strength.
Translucent teeth
achieve realistic effects
Science now matches the color and contour of natural
teeth with artificial ones. But because of a new pro
cess, it also reproduces the three-dimensional effect
of your own teeth.- Translucent teeth have a soft
surface lustre, a gentle gleam,-the diffused shading
of your present teeth. They give a more lifelike ap
pearance to dental plates . . make it hard to detect
you are wearing dentures.
Make Your Own
Credit Terms Within
Reason
Start visits now, pay - later.
Your -credit can be applied to
family's needs.
