Brush your teeth the first thing in the morning. Brush them and pass silk floss between them after each meal. Use a good mouth wash aftor brushing them. Have them exam ined and cleaned by a dentist at least every six months. If any cavities are discovered have them filled at once, they will be larger in another six months and may acho. Tho best dental work is the cheapest in the end. Never have cheap material put in your mouth. If you neglect your teeth you are not always the only one who must suffor but you suffer more than any one else. Bad teeth cause stomach trouble, stomach trouble causes an irritable disposition, having an irritable disposition you become miserable and mako thoso around you as miserable as yourself. Thus others suffer as well as yourself through your own carelessness. Think it over. Mr. Grouch you cannot bo a success in business and have a mean, ugly disposition. Do you realize a little attention given your teeth NOW may mean much to your health later on, make you more friends and a successful business man? THINK IT OVER. Come in anl let me examine your teeth, it will cost you nothing and may mean much to you later on. I use only the best materials money can buy and all my work is guaranteed.
