The file of this patent contains at least one photograph executed in color. Copies of the patent with color photographs(s) will be provided by the Patent and Trademark Office upon request and payment of the necessary fee.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a box showing our new design;

FIG. 2 is a view of a first face of said box; and,

FIG. 3 is a view of a second face of said box.

The third face, fourth face and the end views of the box form no part of the claimed design.

The dentifrice box includes a hologram on the four edges of two faces of the box and within the pattern of the stars and word `WHITENING` and around the word `AQUAFRESH®`. The varying stages of the appearance and pattern of colors of the hologram are not identified by the photographs, but are shown on the sample in the patented file.
