Listerine 21-Day Challenge: Wrap-Up

So they say it takes 21 days to form a habit.

Whoever they are.

And they would be right.

So I would hazard a guess that that’s why the Listerine Challenge was suggested for twenty-one days.

And I’m hooked.

Now, 21 days later, what can I tell you?

I can’t tell you if it’s prevented cavities or made my teeth healthier. Because I’m not a dentist. And because I really think that good dental health is a combination of a million things (flossing, brushing teeth regularly, routine dentist check-ups, using quality toothbrushes, the types of food you eat, using mouthwash, and so on…).

But what I can tell you is that, without a doubt, my mouth feels super clean every time I use the Listerine mouthwash. I had to get past the super tingly, almost-makes-you-wince taste (something my six-year-old calls “spicy;” see also Tic-Tacs), but nothing beats the feeling that it gives you.

Everything feels a million times cleaner, which makes you more confident than ever, and your smiles that much bigger.

And. Well. That’s enough for me.

Consider this new habit enforced.

And me a convert.

It’s not too late for you to help Listerine help children in need. For every person who posts a “Swish Selfie” to LISTERINE^® Brand’s Facebook page (www.facebook.com/listerine), LISTERINE^® Brand will make a $5.00 contribution to Oral Health America’s Smiles Across America^® program, up to $85,000, toward their goal of connecting 210,000 children with needed oral health services in 2014.
