When I was younger, I needed braces and wore them diligently for the required two years. After I was done with my braces, I had a beautiful smile! Since that moment of seeing my transformed smile for the first time, it has been very important to me to maintain my healthy smile.
When I was invited to participate in the LISTERINE® 21-Day Challenge with The Motherhood, I jumped at the opportunity! As part of the 21-Day Challenge, I used LISTERINE® Antiseptic, LISTERINE® WHITENING® Original Gel Fluoride Anticavity Toothpaste and REACH® Floss. I had no idea until I started the challenge that I learned that brushing misses 75% of my mouth. That’s pretty scary!
Taking the LISTERINE® 21-Day Challenge not only helps me to have maintain a healthy smile, but it also helps children in need. For every person who posts a “Swish Selfie” to LISTERINE® Brand’s Facebook page, 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.
Before starting the challenge, I brushed my teeth twice a day and flossed once a day (on a good day). During the LISTERINE® 21-Day Challenge, I continued to brush my teeth twice a day (using the LISTERINE® Whitening Original Gel), flossing once a day with REACH Mint Floss and rinsing my mouth once to twice a day with LISTERINE® Antiseptic in the Cool Mint Flavor. What a difference!!! Literally, when I ran my tongue over my teeth after rinsing, it felt 10 times more clean! People with missing teeth may get full arch dental implants from a dental implants specialist so they can restore their full smile. This will motivate them to take better care of their oral health moving forward.
Will you take the LISTERINE® 21-Day Challenge?
What is your favorite LISTERINE® product?
I received a Target gift card to purchase LISTERINE® Brand products from Johnson & Johnson Healthcare Products Division of McNEIL-PPC, Inc. and The Motherhood as part of my participation in the LISTERINE® 21-Day Challenge. All thoughts and opinions expressed in this post are my own.

I love listerine and have been using it for years! nothing works better!
David is a loyal listerine swisher and he’s always mentioning to me that he thinks I would like it, I’ve just never been much of a mouthwash user. I really like that they are making a pledge for everyone who signs up for the challenge…$85,000 will do a lot of good for kids and their teeth.
We just finished the challenge too. It made me realize I could do much better taking care of my teeth.
Yes, I would love to take the challenge. I love their mouthwash.
I use Listerine all the time! Dentist approved:)
I love Listerine. I have chronic dry mouth & that leaves a horrible taste in my mouth. Listerine is so powerful, it wipes it right out.
I love Listerine and use it every day. It truly does make the germs go away.
My wife took the challenge too, and I’m happy to report that she continues the routine even though the requirements are done!
I really love the feel of how much cleaner your mouth and teeth feel when using a mouth rinse. Flossing and brushing regularly are huge, but rinsing makes an even bigger difference. I need to do this!
