Chances are, some of us have overlooked oral hygiene most of the time these days due to all the things that are happening around us especially in this pandemic. Starting your day right by taking good care of your oral health can boost your mood and contribute to your overall health & well-being. Here are some tips to further raise your game when it comes to taking care of your oral hygiene.

• According to the World Health Organization, having a balanced diet affects your oral health. Having a poor diet can contribute to having gum diseases and tooth decay. And to avoid these oral issues, eating a variety of nutrient-rich foods is a must. Having a balanced diet from all the food groups provide essential nutrients for perfect oral health.

• Use an antibacterial toothpaste like Colgate Total. It’s the only toothpaste that can give us superior protection against bacteria on your teeth, tongue, cheeks, and gums with its unique Dual Zinc and Arginine formula that provides 12-hour protection.

• Add a mouthwash after brushing (and flossing). Does your breath smell ‘funky’ under your face mask? That might be a sign of bad bacteria lurking in your mouth. After brushing and flossing, try using an antibacterial mouthwash like the Colgate Total 12 Superior Protection Mouthwash. This mouthwash is powered with Zinc Antibacterial Shield that effectively fights bacteria that causes cavities, gingivitis, receding gums, dry mouth, plaque build-up. Compared to some of the more ‘aggressive’ mouthwashes especially the ones that contain alcohol, Colgate Total 12 Superior Protection Mouthwash is zero alcohol that does not sting. It also comes in two flavors—fresh mint and the lighter clean mint—that can provide 12-hour superior breath freshness and protection.

Having a brand like Colgate as your partner in oral care is a must these days. Colgate Total 12 Superior Protection Mouthwash in 250ml and 500ml bottles are available at all supermarkets, health and beauty stores, and at Colgate Palmolive Philippines Official Store in Shopee https://shopee.ph/colgatepalmolivephilippines For the latest news and oral health breakthroughs, visit https://www.colgate.com/en-ph
