Well, it's about that time, folks! Summer is over, the kids are back into their normal, school year routine. Are you all adjusted yet? I have to admit, I am going nuts trying to juggle everything right now! 

Anyway, my family likes to call this time of year "Treat Season". And the kids definitely look forward to it! You see, all year long, I am pretty strict about our diet. I don't really buy candy, cookies, or other "junk food" very often, but during the Holidays, I allow my kids to indulge. It would be super mean of me to tell them they couldn't have any ice cream, pie, or their great-grandma's Buckeye Balls. My husband loves "Treat Season", too, since he's incredibly passionate about all things chocolate or dessert. He actually craves sugary treats more than the kids do! 

Since I know the coming months will be full of amazing Holiday treats, I am making sure that we safeguard our dental health with Colgate® Enamel Health TM Toothpaste. 

This brand new offering from Colgate® helps keep to smooth enamel in 2 ways:

1.       Helps replenish natural calcium and other minerals back into weakened enamel, filling rough spots and making it stronger

2.       Gently polishes the enamel surface with gentle micro-polishing action, so germs are less likely to stick to teeth

To complete the line, the Colgate® 360°® Enamel Health™ Manual Toothbrush has several features that complement the toothpaste. The uniquely designed bristles help protect enamel surfaces and gums, while the polishing whitening cups gently remove stains for a brighter smile.


We have been using these products for a couple of weeks now, and we really like them! The toothbrushes are gentle, yet efficient enough to leave teeth feeling squeaky clean. The bristles are very effective in removing any caked-on gunk or residual foods. (Sorry, I know "caked-on gunk doesn't sound attractive. But after eating peanut butter cookies, that's exactly what I had.) 

The Colgate® Enamel Health Toothpaste is also a winner. It has a pleasant, minty flavor, and it really does help polish the teeth while removing bacteria, food debris, etc. from the mouth. I love the fact that this toothpaste may actually strengthen the teeth by adding calcium and minerals back into weakened enamel. This means less pain and less costly visits to the dentist!

Here's to a Holiday season full of fun, family, and of course, all the amazing seasonal foods that come along with it. With our new brushing routine, we're prepared! 

Do you change your dental routine as the Holiday season approaches?
