I am sure you have seen several posts from me about LISTERINE. My family uses these products every day. They are a brand we trust for several reasons. Did you know that LISTERINE® Antiseptic cleans virtually 100% of your mouth to achieve up to five times healthier gums in two weeks and up

to nine times healthier gums in four weeks? Nearly all American adults over the age of 20 have had cavities at some point in their lives (91%) and one in four have untreated cavities (27%). Check out this infographic or you can see the results here. 

A recent national survey revealed the health of one’s mouth has a surprising and significant impact on how others perceive many aspects of one’s life - from opinions about success in romantic relationships  and career, to assumptions about overall health and hygiene. Surprisingly, while more than 8 in 10 people believe they have a healthy mouth (83%), the truth is that  nearly all Americans suffer from some form of oral disease. Many of the oral care issues that Americans experience can be prevented, and adding LISTERINE® as part of a twice-daily oral care routine can help ensure your mouth is always on your side. I will admit, I have bad oral health right now. I drink a ton of pop and I am working on that. I am guilty of forgetting to brush and making my daughter brush, rinse and floss everyday is my #1 priority. Check out some of these facts that I learned from the Infographic about their study:

Nearly 7 in 10 Americans think having an unhealthy mouth threatens one’s chances of getting hired (68%).

More than half of Americans believe that oral health issues can negatively impact one’s success in their relationships (52%), more than an unhealthy weight (33%) or bad skin (19%).

More than 8 in 10 Americans feel oral health issues are embarrassing (85%), and more than 9 in 10 say that they feel better overall when their mouth feels clean (93%).

I don't know about you, but with some of these statistics, I don't feel "alone" anymore. Which can sometimes be a good thing.  To learn more about the LISTERINE® Brand survey, click here.
