Recommend the LISTERINE® 21-Day Challenge

Help your patients improve their oral health with a routine that challenges them to make a habit of better at-home oral care

ESSENTIAL TIPS AND TOOLS FOR YOUR YOUNGER PATIENTS, TOO

You already know that 42% of children have tooth decay by the time they reach 11 years of age.1 The LISTERINE® 21-Day Challenge starts them off right...with the right tools and techniques:

  • Gets parents to encourage healthy habits by setting a good example, and making sure their kids understand the importance of brushing, flossing, and rinsing
  • Allows kids to pick out their preferred toothbrush, toothpaste, and a kid-friendly rinse, such as LISTERINE® SMART RINSE® Anticavity Fluoride Rinse. It gives them the freedom to make decisions and gets them involved with their personal oral care hygiene
  • Rewards their healthy behavior with stickers or other small prizes, and helps them form healthy habits

42% of kids have tooth decay by age 11
