Rochelle Rivera: Toothpaste

Do you have Unhealthy Gums?

appear to be red
Swollen, puffy or tender to the touch
bleed when brushed, flossed or even gently touched

Here are some tips on how to maintain healthy gums:

1. Eat the right foods

An easy way to make sure your gums are getting the healthy support they need is through your diet.

Want healthier gums? Eat more of these foods.

Onions
Leafy Greens
Green Tea
Peppers and Citrus Fruits
Shiitake mushrooms
Celery, carrots, and apples
Milk, Yogurt, and cheese

2. Keep on flossing

Floss at least once a day or every after meal. This helps remove the plaque and food that is beyond your toothbrush's reach. It doesn't matter when you floss: Do it a night, do it in the morning, or do it after lunch... just do it!

3. Keep on brushing

Brush your teeth after every meal. This helps remove the food and plaque trapped between your teeth and gums. Scrub your tongue too, since it can harbor bacteria. As for toothpaste, how do you which one is best for healthy gums?

I highly recommend this new toothpaste that can help fight germs for healthy gums and strong teeth from the brand most recommended by dentists.

Colgate officially introduces the Colgate Active Salt Toothpaste, its first toothpaste that contains the natural goodness of salt. Colgate Active Salt formula combines salt with calcium and minerals and with regular brushing, helps fight germs for healthy gums and strong teeth. Developed after extensive consumer research, Colgate Active Salt addresses most Filipinos' pressing oral health concerns. Its refreshing minty taste infused with natural ingredient of salt brings a unique brushing experience.

Danai Sirisuvun, Senior Product Manager of Colgate-Palmolive Philippines with Colgate Active Salt Brand Ambassador Jodi Sta Maria

"Filipinos have a strong affinity with the traditional benefits of salt for oral care. Colgate Active Salt combines this natural ingredient with Colgate's trusted formula. It is a unique and effective toothpaste perfect for the whole family to use for healthy gums and strong teeth, with regular brushing" said Mr. Danai Sirisuvun, Senior Product Manager at Colgate-Palmolive Philippines.

Colgate Active Salt is now available in leading supermarkets and sari-sari stores nationwide. It retails in three sizes that are priced affordably at Php105 for 180g, Php85 for P132g, and Php25 for 35g (based on suggested retail price).

What makes me confident in doing what I do, and in pursuing my passion? Well, there’s actually many to mention. But one of them is definitely my white teeth. And what completes a set of white teeth? Fresh breath. Absolutely!

The problem is our mouth does a whole lot of work than we can even imagine. From talking or not talking for a long period of time, the food we eat, what we drink, to instinctively putting anything into our mouth – these are just some of the reasons for having a not-so-fresh breath round the clock.

I sometimes suffer from unpleasant breath after eating certain food or being dehydrated. Often, I get preoccupied with meetings and events, and it’s difficult to find time to go for washroom break to retouch and brush my teeth in between engagements. The bad breath monster often attacks without me realizing it.

Your breath is so bad, Colgate got a warrant for your arrest. So watch this video to get that confidence and fresh breath!

I’m glad Colgate, the #1 brand in oral care, has introduced Total Pro Breath Health Toothpaste with Odor Control Technology. This white toothpaste with speckles is the best way to maintain a completely healthy mouth. Thank goodness for Colgate Total Pro Breath Health Toothpaste! It gives me confidence to talk to people face to face. I'm ready to accept this challenge depicted on the video

every time I use Colgate Total because I know it guarantees long lasting fresh breath.

“Bad breath monster” is the result of bacteria build-up in our mouth. For true and lasting freshness, we need to get rid of germs that stays even after brushing. Regular toothpaste only masks the odor while Colgate Total Pro Breath Health Toothpaste controls bad breath continuously. Breath health doesn’t only mean keeping spotless white teeth, it is having 100% protection for our gums, cheek, and tongue.

This is perfect for me because it has unique antibacterial formula, with Odor Control technology, that can keep fresh mouthfeel for up to 12 hours. It traps and neutralizes even the toughest odors and exudes floral notes and refreshing flavors. How pleasant is that?

No doubt, I recommend #ColgateTotalProBreathHealth with Odor Control Technology!

They say that education is the paramount inheritance that we could pass on to our children – something that can never be taken away from them. I and my husband are believers. Aside from teaching them faith and respectable demeanors, we do everything we can to make sure our children get the best training at school. School is our partner in building a strong foundation for our kids’ success. Although, as I have observed, rearing our kids to become virtuous in this modern time is more challenging than before. And I have three boys! Raising them has never been and will never be like a walk in the park.

I remember when we were playing one day, I asked them what they wanted to be when they grow up. My youngest son, Elijah, said he wants to be a fireman. He was so game and in character! Ethan dreams of becoming a chef. I always ask him to join me in the kitchen and he enjoys it. Nikolas loves sports and physical pursuits. His goals include becoming a professional basketball player. As much as possible, I make myself free when he has an event. I hope and pray for their success in the near future. Yes, I am a supportive mom (maybe bordering to being a stage-mom). And a drama queen, I guess. Oh my, I get teary when think about the time when my little boys will no longer let me kiss or hug them in public. Ironically, I can’t wait to see them all fulfilled and happy in their own fields and passion.

Anyway, enough with the emotional stuff. Every Filipino mom will be super excited and will keep smiling to know this great news from Colgate. Colgate Scholarship Promo gives parents the chance to secure their children’s future. Personally, I was very pleased when I learned about it.

What do you normally do when you wake up and before you go to sleep? I know all of us would say “pray and thank God”. Some will say, “text or call my special someone” or “kiss my husband and kids”. “Personal hygiene” will never grow old as an answer, too.

Personal hygiene is vital in our daily living. We take a bath at least twice a day to keep ourselves fresh and confident when we go out. This is very common being in a tropical country, the humidity, especially during summer, will make everyone crave for a cold shower or, if possible, a plunge in the pool or beach. In other countries, typically the cold ones, they don’t take a bath as often as we, Filipinos, do. Just like having rice in our meals, taking a bath is big in our routine. Agree?

Taking care of our body doesn’t only mean eating healthy food; individual cleanliness is a constant part of it and we can start by having a healthy mouth. Brushing our teeth regularly is one of the ways we can keep our body clean and well-rounded. And we want a great product to be our partner in accomplishing this goal.

“Brush, brush, brush, three times a day! Brush, brush, brush to keep cavities away…” Who remembers this song from one of Colgate’s TVC? Maybe some of us even used this song to train their kids on how to properly brush their teeth. For years, Colgate supplies have been included in our grocery list, and personal hygiene kit at home, school and work. It is the most trusted and reliable brand when it comes to toothbrush, toothpaste, mouthwash, and other products. It stands out in terms of continuously developing new products to suit our fast-changing and ever-adapting way of life.

While Colgate toothpaste keeps our mouth protected from bacteria, Colgate believes that protecting our toothbrush from bacteria is similarly imperative. It is not enough that we store our toothbrush in a spotless and harmless room. This is the key purpose why Colgate brings us the first ever Colgate Slim Soft Gold Charcoal toothbrush. Wow, I know that’s a mouthful!

Here are the reasons why you should switch to this advanced and remarkable toothbrush.

We normally keep our toothbrush in the bathroom, most of the times with a cap or in a sanitized storage cabinet. But we must realize that germs are everywhere! Even if we rinse our toothbrush thoroughly, there are still bacteria that will never leave. Surprisingly, regular brushes hide millions of bacteria. I couldn’t even imagine putting that into my mouth, more so to clean it. That’s so disgusting! With its anti-bacterial bristles, you can be sure your toothbrush is protected from bacteria growth. Yes! Gold-colored bristles inhibit growth of bacteria on the brush’s bristles. So we get to brush our teeth with a hygienic toothbrush. Puts your mind at ease, right?

Maybe you’re asking now, “What does the charcoal have to do with it?” Very simple, the charcoal-infused spiral bristles help remove the stains from the teeth’s surface. This will make you want to show your pearly whites even more! Be confident to smile wider.

· Oral care is not just about brushing the teeth, it means making sure our gums are in the pink as well. That is why this new innovation from Colgate features soft and slim bristles. We get a deep clean in-between teeth but stays gentle on the gums. And we’d want the ridges and margins between our teeth really cleaned, right? A filthy mouth may cause bad-breath and other oral health concerns, which are a nightmare. We don’t want that, do we? So here goes some help from our good friend Colgate.

You might think that having all of these benefits in one product is expensive. You have to check it out now. It is reasonably priced; you don’t even have to think twice. You no longer need those costly electric toothbrush-sterilizing devices. Very economic indeed!

We want to be able to make a flawless first impression and a lasting one through our self-esteem in all our endeavors. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is significant in our day to day social interaction, and needs not to be a lavish investment.

We can get affordable oral health care with Colgate Slim Soft Gold Charcoal toothbrush to start with.

What are you waiting for? Get your Colgate Slim Soft Gold Charcoal and be ready to show your brightest smile!
