Listerine is a Mother-in-Law Approved Product!
When MomCentral asked if I wanted to review Listerine’s new cavity fighting mouthwash, Total Care, I kind of giggled. My mother-in-law works for a dentist office. She does things like fill my “groovy” teeth, as she and my dentist refer to them. You see, it’s not that I don’t care for my teeth. I do. It’s just that I have extra grooves and such in my teeth, making them succeptible to things like… sigh… cavities.
And so when my mother-in-law approves a product, I listen. And she approves of Listerine. As such, we’ve always had some in our house. We didn’t yet have the new Listerine Total Care in house yet so I was excited to get it. Also, the purple color made me happy!
First and foremost, I’m a mouth wuss. I can give birth to children but mouth pain, even in the form of mouthwash, is not my bag of chips. However, this Listerine isn’t what I would call “super burn-y” or too powerful for my wussy mouth. I was able to keep it in my mouth for the full, suggested one minute, “vigorously” swishing it and telling myself that I was awesome! Second, I really like the taste. Different than the blue or orange flavors but equally good in its own way.
The nice thing about Total Care is that it’s not just for cavities (though it is!). It does six things:
1. Helps to prevent cavities.
2. Restores enamel.
3. Strengthens teeth.
4. Kills bad breath germs.
5. Freshens breath.
6. Fights unsightly plaque above the gum line.
And, so, even if you don’t have groovy teeth, like me, this stuff can be of benefit to your oral hygiene care! And, plus, if my mother-in-law recommends it, you’re in good care. Swish up!
The new Listerine Total Care can be purchased for anywhere from just over $3.00 to just over $6.00. And if you’re using the recommended two teaspoonfuls (and not too much), it will last you awhile! That’s something that works for me in this economy!
