A few weeks ago my family and I joined the Listerine ® Healthy Habits for A Lifetime Oral Care Challenge. Listerine Smart Rinse so easy a 6 year old can do it It has been really good for us to concentrate on increasing our attention to all things teeth. In the past, I have been concerned that the kids’ brushing technique was a little…lacking.   I have fallen in LOVE with  LISTERINE ® Smart Rinse because it gives them a second chance at each brushing to decrease plaque. Initially, I was worried that the rinse would be just another mess in the sink, but it is super simple. The rinse is squeezed up into the neck of the bottle {instead of poured into a cap}. This is HUGE.   Even my 6 year old can use it properly without spilling. The other thing I found helped was to get each boy their own bottle.   Now they have a toothbrush and a rinse together in their bathroom basket.   This has decreased the sharing-the-bathroom-angst. The boys have all embraced the additional step of using LISTERINE ® Smart Rinse because they like the way it tastes. As for me, my dentist will be so proud.   I have regularly flossed and used LISTERINE ®   Antiseptic Rinse at least twice a day.   Once I was used to the new routine, it was easy to squeeze in an extra minute.   I also felt like my teeth were much cleaner. We are going to continue with the challenge. It is a win-win situation. More information can be found about the challenge and you can see what the other participating bloggers thought by following the #healthyhabits hashtag on twitter.   All the products that I mentioned and my family is using are available at Walmart.com. I received products and compensation from Johnson & Johnson and The Motherhood as part of my participation in the Oral Care Challenge.   All thoughts and opinions expressed in this post are my own.
