April is oral-health month, and to celebrate you’ll find some great things going on, on both the Crest and Oral-B Facebook pages. To celebrate, both pages are asking fans to pledge to get a more confident smile by brushing, flossing and rinsing with Crest and Oral-B products. For every pledge they receive, they’ll donate $1 to Dress for Success (up to a total of $20,000!) Dress for Success is an outstanding program with a mission to promote the economic independence of disadvantaged women by providing professional attire, a network of support and the career development tools to help women thrive in work and in life.
It takes two seconds to go to either the Crest Facebook page or Oral-B Facebook page and click LIKE – please do!
As a P&G Mom, I have a great giveaway from Oral-B in honor of oral-health month. Over the years, our technology in Canada has certainly advanced, and we’re embraced it wholeheartedly. Or have we?
According to the Third Annual Crest and Oral-B Great Canadian Smile Survey, as of 2011, 72% of Canadians are still using a manual toothbrush! Even though dental health professionals recommend electric toothbrushes and the facts prove they clean your teeth better. Hum! That’s perplexing.
In fact, the Oral-B Professional Deep Sweep Triaction 5000, for example, cleans 100% more plaque than a manual toothbrush, helping to prevent and reverse gingivitis. How? With 40,000 pulsations and 8800 oscillations per minute. It makes sense that an advanced toothbrush can do more – it’s just about educating people that their manual toothbrush isn’t doing as much as it should! Other features of this toothbrush include five cleaning modes: Daily Clean, Deep Clean, Sensitive, Whitening and Massage. It also comes with a professional timer – every 30 seconds it beeps so that you cover all four quadrants of your mouth (you’d be surprised how long 30 seconds actually is when using the timer). My favorite feature of this brush is a built in pressure sensor that stops when you’re brushing too hard. My dentist said I brush too hard (whoops) so this is a great feature to help train me to lighten up – in my brushing anyway. 😉
To celebrate oral-health month, P&G Brands and I are teaming up to give you the opportunity to win the Oral-B Professional Deep Sweep Triaction 5000 (ARV $110). To enter to win, just use the Rafflecopter form below.

Since as far back as I can remember, I’ve been using an Oral-B Electric toothbrush (I’ve had several). The battery just died on my latest one so I’ve been borrowing the kids (love the removable heads) but I need my own. Coincidence? I think not…
Can’t say enough great things about them!
