Expecting a kiss this Valentine’s day? Freshen up with DS Healthcare and Thursday Plantation

Spread the love

Valentine’s day. You either love it or you hate it. It’s a time of love and a day of romantic gestures – and so compared to candle-lit dinners and red rose petals scattered throughout the bedroom, mouthwash and oral-health supplements aren’t the first things that come into your head when you think of 14th February. They could, however, prove to be a saviour – the deciding factor of whether a second date is on the agenda.

Whether you are expecting a kiss on your first date with that new romantic flame or snuggling up with your loved one you should make sure that your mouth is in tip-top condition. Bad breath or poor oral hygiene are certain to kill any romance that may be in the air. Here are a few hints and tips that you should practice on the run-up to the big day to ensure that you are looking and feeling your best. We will leave the rest up to you…

This goes without saying…but make sure that you brush your teeth twice daily (for a minimum of two minutes per brushing session).

Use a high quality mouthwash after brushing your teeth to remove any remaining bacteria and leave your breath smelling and feeling fresh. Try Thursday Plantation’s Tea Tree Mouthwash. It’s made with 100% Tea Tree which has anti-fungal and anti-bacterial properties – leaving your mouth and teeth feeling brand new. Thursday Plantation Tea Tree Mouthwash available from www.revital.co.uk. £4.95 for 250ml.

If you are prone to suffering from mouth ulcers then start treating them with something like metronidazole 500mg tablets a week prior to your date or Valentine’s day. Kissing when you have painful ulcers isn’t a comfortable experience. You will gain increased confidence knowing that your mouth holds no hidden surprises. We recommend Bye! Mouth Ulcer (£7.95 for 15ml). It’s a pain-free and quick solution to mouth ulcers. The unique formula forms a protective shield over the ulcer, allowing you to continue with everyday life. The best part if that it’s non-acidic and so doesn’t disturb the mouths natural flora – the perfect way to get rid of those pesky mouth ulcers.

Sometimes it’s not always convenient to brush your teeth or use mouthwash. When you are in the office why not use Oraldiet. Oraldiet is an innovative oral probiotic lozenge that contains the probiotic lactobacillus reuteri. The formulation binds to your saliva and therefore stays in the mouth – allowing you to feel fresh for longer. The presence of aloe vera gel ensures that your mouth flora kept healthy at all times, leaving you to concentrate on more important things. Oraldiet is available from www.revital.co.uk. £6.35 for 30 lozenges.

Last but not least…do not forget to smile!
