Sometimes brushing your teeth is just NOT an option! Maybe you’re busy on the go all day or you don’t have running water(I live in a valley and all to often if the wind blows just right I have no power) or maybe you are camping! I also don’t know how many mornings I’ve rolled out of bed later for an appointment and barely had enough time to brush my hair let alone brush my teeth. Thats where Fresh Tips come in handy!
Fresh Tips are a fast and easy way to brush your teeth without toothpaste or water! They are seriously the perfect travel toothbrush! I even put a few in my emergency kit! Fresh Tips was started by dental professionals with the goal to promote fresh breath and oral health worldwide.
They are SO easy to use! Just put it in your mouth and twirl it around like a lollipop. There’s no foaming so there’s no need to rinse.
They clean your teeth, gums and tongue and are super effective and water or toothpaste is not needed! They are disposable and sugar-free xylitol to fight the bacteria that cause bad breath, plaque and cavities.
So What is Xylitol?
Xylitol is a naturally occurring sweetener that can be extracted from fruits and vegetables and used like sugar. Its chemical structure has five carbons, whereas sugar has six carbons. Xylitol looks and tastes like sugar, but it’s not sugar! It is a low calorie sweetener with only 2.4 calories per gram (one-third the calories as sugar).[i] Xylitol was first discovered by Fischer, a German chemist, in 1890.[ii] It has been used as a sweetener since the 1960s.[iii] Since, it has gained popularity due to its ability to fight cavities. Xylitol is also good for diabetics and is a good tasting sugar substitute.[iv] Xylitol is a naturally occurring sweetener that also prevents cavities.
They come in peppermint and bubblegum flavor! I was sent both to try.
Review:
