Instead of taking commercials at their word that “four out of five dentists recommend it,” let us suggest a few products that we LOVE as a dental company. No gimmicks. Just products we adore that can help keep your teeth strong.
We know there are TONS of gift guides floating around, but hear us out. Oral care gifts make the perfect stocking stuffers. They’re a thoughtful gift and worthwhile investment for your partner, parent, friend, or child. Gifting someone a new toothbrush or flosser says “I love you and I want to help you take care of yourself.”
It can be tough trying to commit to a product or present an idea, so let us take the guesswork out of it for you. Here are the oral health products we think should be in your family’s stockings this year!
Slate Flosser
Of course we’re going to start this list with the Slate Flosser. 😉 The Slate Flosser is designed to be the only dental tool needed in addition to your toothbrush to achieve complete oral health. Its ergonomic handle offers easy access to your back teeth, while the sonic vibrations, woven floss, and gum sweeps, remove as much plaque and debris as possible. Help the people you love finally develop that flossing habit! Click here to buy yours today!
No matter how effective you think you are while manually brushing your teeth, I promise, it’s not enough. This electric toothbrush removes up to 10 times more plaque than a manual toothbrush. With five cleaning modes and a two-week battery life, this toothbrush will easily improve anyone’s brushing game. Plus, this toothbrush is Dr. Snyder’s (inventor of the Slate Flosser) favorite!
