Save on Dental Cost Keep Your #FABsmile for Less
Sometimes it’s a struggle to keep my son’s teeth healthy because he’s at that age where TV and video games are more important than brushing, Arrgghhh! It’s a pain and I had saying things more than once so I have to devise bribes and punishments or just that good old-fashioned “Momma stare” to get him to get in there and handle his business… *sigh.
None of likes visiting the Dentist and for a long time I didn’t have health or dental insurance so I had to do what I had to do to keep our mouths healthy. Fortunately, we are blessed with pretty healthy teeth but I know that to keep them healthy we have to brush and floss regularly.
Forming the habit early is important so that means encouraging brushing and flossing as well as changing our toothbrushes every quarter. I’m a baking soda and peroxide gal so I incorporate that into my routine. I’ve recently learned about oil pulling to maintain healthy teeth and gums but that’s another post. The point is I’ve learned to save on dental cost and keep my family’s FABsmiile for less.
The American Dental Association says that ultimate dental care beings with flossing your teeth daily and changing your toothbrush every three months. FlossAndBrush.com is the first system in the world that actually helps keep families accountable for daily flossing and changing their toothbrush every three months.

Mommy Brain Takes Over
One of the problems with keeping a healthy smile is remembering to buy new toothbrushes. Those things can get kind of disgusting and if you have a child like I do that seems to gnaw on them it is even worse. A good solution would to have toothbrushes and floss dropped at your door every three months, right? Who doesn’t love home delivery on basic necessities? I’m raising my hand over here. I’m a busy, working mom so I need all the help I can get. Fortunately, there is a service for that called FlossandBrush.com. They deliver toothbrushes and floss for about $1 per person every three months.
Trying Out Floss and Brush Service
I was able to try out the Floss and Brush service this month. A package was delivered to my door that contained new toothbrushes, floss, and a tube of teeth whitener. Everything was securely contained in their packaging or shrink wrap. I’m impressed with the set-up so far and can see myself using the service if nothing for the convenience of not having to remember to go to the store and buy new toothbrushes. One thing I which they included is toothpaste. Of course not everyone uses the same kind but 2-3 options would be nice.
