I’m happy to share a new product I’ve been using with you. It’s the Colgate Optic White Toothbrush + Whitening Pen. If you read my blog regularly, then you’ve heard me talk about taking care of my teeth. Last year I had Invisalign in order to do the dental work I needed. My teeth aren’t perfect but they are much better than they were. To get them to be “perfect” would require a lot more than Invisalign and of course a lot more money. So therefore we’ve done what we can and I’m happy with the results.
Now that my smile is fuller, I want it to be whiter but I hate the taste of most whiting mouthwashes and whitening strips. It’s never easy, is it? So when Colgate sent me the Colgate Optic White Toothbrush + Whitening Pen I was excited to try something different.
It’s pretty cool because it’s a toothbrush with special bristles to help clean your teeth and reach places where stains may form, but it also has a whitening pen in the base of it that tucks away for storage. Now I know it’s just one more thing to do or to get and I was hesitant at first at how good it would work. But I’m happy to say I really like this and will probably use it on a more regular basis. Even though I don’t like the whitening strips, I’ve used them in the past and it doesn’t last very long. Especially with all the coffee I drink. But if i use the pen daily, it seems to last longer so we’ll see.
So how easy is it to use? Just Brush as you normally would with your toothpaste, then pull the pen out from the base of your toothbrush and turn the dial at the bottom of pen and apply the gel to your teeth. Just two ‘turns’ for the top and two ‘turns’ for the bottom. It takes only seconds to apply and adhere to your teeth. There is No waiting and no rinsing. After you are done, just Store the pen inside the brush for next time. Simple, right?
Also new to the Colgate® Optic White® line is the Colgate® Optic White® PLATINUM Whiten and Protect™ Toothpaste which deeply whitens more than three shades while sealing out new stains and the new Colgate® Optic White® WhiteSeal™ mouthwash which protects against future stains with advanced stain prevention technology.
A clinical study shows that using the Colgate® Optic White TM Toothbrush + Whitening Pen twice daily will help users achieve whiter teeth in 2 days*. Use with new Colgate® Optic White® PLATINUM Whiten and Protect™ Toothpaste and Colgate® Optic White® WhiteSeal™ Mouthwash for whitening results even faster – brush, rinse, whiten and go – for whiter teeth in 1 day**.
I noticed a difference in my teeth in just a few days. To make sure I could see the difference, I only used the pen on the top teeth for a week and the different was amazing. And really it only took seconds to do and the taste wasn’t bad at all. And since I finished with my Invisalign treatments, I have to wear a retainer all the time so I just put the retainer on after I apply the gel and then I really can’t taste it. Perfect!
