Take care of your teeth. Period. Read more in  this post sponsored by LISTERINE® and Socialstars. #LISTERINE #BringOutTheBold #Sonicare

You know what we don’t talk about nearly enough? Having good oral hygiene. Growing up I was taught to brush my teeth at least twice a day, and more if I had sweets. The dentist reminded me to floss. My parents urged me to stay away from sticky candy, but that was really it. I mean, I guess that’s enough. Nowadays, though, with dentists selling whitening procedures via deal apps, folks kind of feel like they don’t have to take care of their teeth like they used to back in the day. 

That’s not true! I don’t care how many social media followers you have, how many drones you own, or what kind of electric car you drive, there is no modern solution to having great oral hygiene besides taking care of your teeth. It’s important, y’all. No one is going to click like on your selfie if you have a mouth full of cavities.

On a more serious note, taking care of your teeth goes way beyond just looking good. There is proven research that gum disease can sometimes lead to other health problems. How awful would it be to end up sick all because you brush your teeth?

Take care of your teeth.

So what do you need to do to make sure you don’t end up feeling horrible from poor oral hygiene? Take care of your teeth! First, make sure you go to the dentist at least twice a year for a cleaning. Next, purchase a quality toothbrush like Philips Sonicare. You might thing that all toothbrushes are created equally, but that’s just not true. Philips Sonicare has patented sonic technology that helps to remove up to 6x more plaque than a manual toothbrush. There’s even a version for kids so your littles can start their oral hygiene journey off on the right foot.

Finally, add LISTERINE® TOTAL CARE ZERO FRESH MINT Anticavity Mouthwash to your routine. Perfect for families (children ages 6+ can use it), this zero-alcohol formula kills germs and helps you have a healthy mouth.
