The best electric toothbrush I have used. The head is small enough to reach everywhere, the intensity doesn't hurt my gums, and I can put it on sensitive if my teeth need a gentler clean.

My daily toothpaste. Neutralizes the pH in the mouth, isn’t too abrasive, freshens breath, and removed my stubborn coffee stains.

Gum Health

I used this for a long time when I first entered the program, and I can say it works. The SLS really makes this toothpaste foam up and reaches deep into the gums.

Waterpik really flushes out debris in your gums to keep them clean, but it should not be used as an adjunct to flossing. Together, a water flosser and floss are the dream team for interdental care.
