Listerine Does More than Just Freshen Your Breath | MomsGetReal

Win free Listerine products from MomsGetReal! See details below!

I got my first cavity when I was 5. I may have been predisposed to them, as my daughter had the same issues with her baby teeth. I survived multiple childhood cavities and had beautiful adult teeth to replace them. But when I was in my 20s, I drank Mountain Dew regularly and late into the night, and then I would go to bed without brushing. It wasn?t long before I had cavities in my adult teeth. Lots of them.

Teeth. You really don?t tend to appreciate them as much as you should until you start having issues. Until you experience pain from a cavity or end up with a root canal, your teeth are taken for granted. I know I took mine for granted?even though I stopped drinking soda, started brushing my teeth and flossing faithfully, and reigned in the trouble.?In fact, I was so irresponsible with my teeth that I am missing #19, my left molar.You wouldn?t know it to look at me; the missing tooth is far enough back that it doesn?t effect my smile, and I was lucky to find an oral surgeon who was able to remove it without damaging the teeth on either side?but it?s irrecoverable. A filling broke and fell out, and I put off going to the dentist to get it fixed for so long that by the time I did, the dentist who tried to drill & clean out the cavity to re-fill it broke the tooth so I had to have it extracted.

It was after the excruciating pain I suffered from the tooth extraction that I began to truly appreciate my teeth and began to slightly obsess about tooth care. I talk about dental care regularly, from participating in the Listerine oral care challenge to experimenting with different Listerine products in order to make sure my teeth stay healthy.

So I am pretty happy to have two new AWESOME products to tell you about:

Listerine Whitening Anticavity Toothpaste

listerine-ultracleanIn addition to leaving my mouth feeling fresh and having a dramatic difference on my teeth, Listerine Whitening fluoride anticavity toothpaste controls tartar, restores enamel and strengthens teeth. It RESTORES enamel?so if you have a precursory spot that may eventually become a cavity, it can literally help prevent the cavity from developing.

Listerine Ultraclean with Everfresh Technology

When I read the bottle and it said ?dentist clean? feeling, I thought ?yeah, right.? But truly?this mouth rinse leaves my mouth feeling fresh and clean for several hours. Did you know that brushing can miss up to 75% of the mouth surface, leaving bacteria and food particles to go to work creating cavities and tartar? SEVENTY-FIVE PERCENT! That?s why rinsing is so important! Listerine Ultraclean helps to control tartar build-up, kills plaque & gingivitis, and makes breath fresh.
