“Detoxify My Gums” with the Crest 5-Day Challenge

Brushing our teeth is such an important part of our daily routine. We wake up, brush our teeth, go on with our day and then return to the sink and  brush our teeth before returning to bed. We do it so frequently that our good dental hygiene practices can slip through the cracks, literally. Our teeth create hard to reach places and spaces that, if we don’t focus on brushing rigorously, can build up plaque, bacteria and other stuff we don’t want in our smile. It is easy to slip into routine, so Crest created a new toothpaste to help with those hard to reach places, Gum Detoxify. I had the opportunity to participate in the “Detoxify Your Gums” 5-Day challenge and I already feel so much more confident in my gums, teeth and overall smile!

On the first day of the challenge, I was a bit wary of switching toothpaste because I actually already use another type of toothpaste from Crest that involves whitening. But, honestly, I’ve always had sensitive gums and wanted to work on getting them healthy! On Day 1 I used the toothpaste in the morning and at nighttime. Obviously, for the first day, I didn’t see any changes. However, I enjoyed the freshness of the toothpaste and was excited to use it again on Day 2. When Day 2 rolled around I woke up with fresh breath. Again, I used the toothpaste in the morning and night. The “Activated Foam” technology is probably my favorite thing about this toothpaste thus far. Day 2 of the challenge was a success in my book.

Day 3: I haven’t seen a noticeable change in my gums yet, but I know the changes are happening. My gums and teeth feel cleaner and healthier once I use this toothpaste. It is almost like I could feel the toothpaste and foam reach those hard to get places between my teeth!

Day 4: With Crest Gum Detoxify I noticed my gums feeling cleaner when I’m done brushing my teeth. What is also great is that the freshness lasts longer throughout the day. The toothpaste cools your gums so you leave the bathroom feeling minty fresh and prepared for the day ahead of you.

Day 5: It’s the final day but I can proudly say it won’t be my last day using this toothpaste. In my short 5-Day Challenge, I’ve noticed little bits of progress in my gums and my smile. I plan to keep using this toothpaste to see where my gums and teeth are in a month or even a year! Perhaps this toothpaste is the answer to all of our gum problems. I love feeling of fresh and clean gums hours after waking up. I am so happy with my results!

If you find yourself with weak gums, redness, soreness or are just unhappy with your gum health, I recommend you try Crest Gum Detoxify. It is a great product and it is affordable. Gum Detoxify comes in Deep Clean, Extra Fresh, Gentle Whitening and Two-Step Varieties. Your results only take a few days and I guarantee you will be so happy you won’t stop smiling!  ?
