Listerine Oral Care Challenge | Family Project Update

A few weeks ago I shared with you some information regarding oral health care and told you my family was taking the Listerine Oral Care Challenge. Well it’s time to reveal just how important this challenge was to my family. First I will admit that there have been very painful issues within our family when it comes to our teeth and I think that each one of us has learned to take much better care of our mouths during this challenge. My husband and I and both of our daughters have finally gotten everything fixed that needed fixing and we are all determined to brush, floss and rinse on a daily basis to help maintain the good conditions our mouths are in right now.

The biggest challenge was to get our almost five year old into good brushing habits. Sure we brushed her teeth in the morning and in the evening but didn’t think much of anything else beyond that. I had received mixed messages throughout all my children’s life about it being too early to start flossing to it being too late to start flossing. The one dominate lesson learned while taking this Oral Care Challenge was that it is never too early for flossing and rinsing, something I just didn’t do with my kids. My husband and I did it, but we just never thought of having the kids do it too.

Now both of my daughters have a morning, afternoon and evening ritual with their oral care. And we made it fun for my youngest daughter by keeping a calendar, so she can get a sticker for each full day of taking care of her teeth. And once a full week goes by her prize is to pick out a small toy (usually a yo-yo, sticker album or puffy stickers) to proudly show to her friends and other family members so they know she was a big girl and took care of her teeth. She has been so excited about it and has done so well.

The challenged not only help the girls get into a schedule of taking care of their own teeth but it made a significant difference for my husband and I as well. Oral care is very important and something I plan on keeping on top of for all of us. With Listerine and their line of products as well as the Reach toothbrushes, which are the best toothbrushes I have ever used, the Leet household is geared up for the battle of having good teeth, fresh breath and a beautiful smile!!!!
