Spring Clean Your Oral Health

I brush my teeth as frequently as possible, all too often with a child or two hanging from a limb, with whichever toothpaste the hubby picked up on his latest shopping trip.  Not a fabulous routine at all!  That ended about a week ago when I was given the opportunity to review the Crest and Oral-B Pro Health Clinical Plaque Control line of products.  I was psyched to experience the same fresh minty mouth I get from the dentist to face the world every morning, without stepping foot into the office I fear the most.

Up until now my oral routine, has not provided me with that clean and fresh feeling, especially the mornings I find myself brushing with toddler toothpaste!  Mornings are brutal over in these parts.  As a mom it is important for me to instill a healthy oral routine into my children.  Of course like everything it is a battle and some days are better than others, especially when they witness me not practicing what I preach.

On the days of most resistance I resort to the stories of my mother, and grandmother.  Both have dentures and that is not a road I think the kids are willing to travel down, no matter how funny they think it is when they pull their teeth in and out!

Crest Pro Health has allowed me the opportunity to not only upgrade the products we use, but also create a new routine and a more enjoyable experience.

The Crest and Oral-B Pro Health Clinical line of products claim to significantly reduce plaque, as well as prevent and reverse the effects of gingivitis when used simultaneously.  We received the new line of Crest and Oral-B Pro-Health Clinical Plaque Control products, which included:
