Fighting Plaque With the Dark Side of the Force

I participated in this sponsored campaign on behalf of Firefly®, REACH®, and One2One Network. All opinions stated are my own.

With five people in my household I feel like I am constantly replacing toothbrushes, toothpaste or cleaning up messes in the sinks. I also do a lot of nagging when it comes to oral care habits in our household. I recently took my 4 year old to the dentist only to find she had seven cavities! How crazy is it that she had seven cavities! So when we came home from the dentist that day we had a talk with all three kids about how important oral care is.

Luckily Firefly® and REACH® have products to keep my family covered and hopefully cavity free going forward. For my kids, I found that its important to make brushing fun rather than a chore.

Firefly® is the leader in children’s oral care solutions and the products are ADA-approved. Thanks to Firefly® including fun characters my kids were so excited to brush their teeth. One particular toothbrush from Firefly® is from the new Firefly Star Wars Collection. The Kylo Ren Lightsaber toothbrush lights up for 60 seconds, teaching kids to brush for one full minute on each row of teeth. It even makes lightsaber noises, I honestly might want one for myself. I looked up the Firefly Star Wars Collection and found more lightsaber toothbrushes available, I might have to get all of them!

Mouthwash is something that is important for kids as well but not something they always want to use. The Firefly Spider-Man Fun Pump Rinse is sugar-free, alcohol free and boasts an amazing melon flavor that kids will love. I absolutely love that it comes with a convenient cup built-in which makes it easy for kids to know how much to use and doesn’t require disposable cups.

REACH® products covered my husband and I. Did you know that you need to change your toothbrush every three months? It also needs to be changed every time you get over a cold! I feel like we’ve been sick off and on for the past six months and I had no clue we should have been replacing our toothbrushes. Now I am going to make sure I keep extras on hand so I don’t have an excuse not to replace one.

The REACH UltraClean toothbrush has a floss-like feeling bent bristle brush that really does offer a complete clean feel in your mouth. It allows you to get all around your teeth without digging the toothbrush in various crevices. It is easy to hold and even has a tongue cleaner on the back of it. For the price of around $1 you really can’t go wrong either!

The REACH Advanced Design Toothbrush has thick and deep bristles that really scrub your teeth, or so my husband says. It has a flexible design that allows for easy brushing due to the different lengths of bristles.
