My current homecare faves 🎀🦷
The oral care aisle is so overwhelming and tbh, there is a lot of junk out there that preys on people’s insecurities. Here are some tried and true favorites of mine- and they’ve held their rank for YEARS. Of course your product selection should be based on your goals. Looking for specific reccs, comment below!
Whether you have bleedy gums, need sensory processing variations like flavors or textures, get a lot of ulcers, there’s a product that can likely help. Many products can tackle a variety of concerns!
A lot of new toothpastes hit the market everyday, and while many come close, none can beat CariFree
NanoHA + fluoride + Xylitol + high pH AND its gentle on enamel, comes in a gel texture, AND mint & non-mint options.
Most OTC whitening products are going to get you about the same outcome because there is an upper limit to how strong it can be. The main difference is the delivery mechanism and how well it’s going to prevent whitening related sensitivity. I love the delivery method of the Go trays but the burst cause less sensitivity & at the end of the day, the product you are able to use is going to work best.
Mouthwash can be extremely harmful if you’re not careful with what you use. For this reason, my preference is a tongue scraper but there are instances where mouthwashes can be beneficial.
Did you know traditional waxed or unwaxed floss have PFAS (even the floss picks) & because the oral mucosa is so absorbent, there’s a higher amount of these microplastic/forever chemicals absorbed!?
