Dental Hygiene

Friday, July 23, 2010

Now, don’t stop reading just because of the title. I promise that I’m talking about the joys of dental hygiene and not the downfalls. Really. I promise. Swear upon my dying breath. Dying breath, not bad breath.

First, dental hygiene is expensive! My gracious. I just wanted a toothbrush, toothpaste, and floss. I got the two-pack toothbrush because I thought it was a deal, but the price I thought it was was 1/2 of what it actually was. Floss is ridiculous as well. But the cheapest way to go was to get the really cool flossing sticks so that your hands don’t get in the way of the floss, because my mouth is only so big.

Second, I had to make a big decision: what toothpaste do I choose? My usual is just Crest Original. It’s minty, it tastes good, and it’s pretty cheap (especially in a Value Pack). But I was feeling adventurous last night, so I considered different options.

1. Crest

2. The cool toothpaste that combines mouthwash flakey things and toothpaste

3. Princess Bubblegum toothpaste or

4. The new foaming gel Aquafresh that whitens teeth and cleans out plaque between teeth

… and the winner waaaaassssss, Aquafresh!!

So now my teeth are just begging to be brushed. I ripped open my toothbrushes, chose the blue one, and opened the lid to my new Aquafresh. After struggling with the pump top, I finally squirted a reasonable amount onto my brush and shoved it into my mouth. Two words for you: FOAMING EXPLOSION. It was amazing. I mean, I could feel it eradicating germs from my mouth. It was so foamy, I looked rabid (log information away for possible pranks later).

Top that experience off with cool floss sticks and glass of water, and my mouth was one happy place. You know all of this has to be pretty life changing, because I’m blogging about brushing my teeth. And by the way, my teeth are looking whiter already. *brilliant smile of blazing whiteness*
