The morning routine is different for everyone, but consistency with the basics – breakfast, making the bed, cleaning, washing – sets each person up for a productive day, driven by a positive attitude. This routine can boost self-esteem and mental health by promoting self-care and wellness; values that reduce anxiety, lower stress, improve concentration, increase happiness and energise the body.[i]

Oral care is a key tenet of the daily routine and can supplement these values. Beginning each morning with a fresh feeling can make patients ready for the day ahead, flashing a clean, bright smile that boosts self-confidence.[ii] The correlation between self-esteem and productivity is high,[iii] and this could begin with something as simple as a consistent and effective oral hygiene routine.

A reliable oral hygiene companion

A healthy body needs a healthy mouth, and Curaden’s extensive range of Curaprox products are designed to help patients achieve an optimal standard in their oral hygiene, one that guards against caries and periodontitis without compromising on aesthetics, function and patient comfort.

For instance, the CS 5460 is a deceptively simple, traditional toothbrush that offers excellent cleaning power. Its brush head contains 5,460 densely-packed Curen® filaments that remove trapped food debris and harmful bacteria with ease, whilst also providing a gentle experience. Available in 12 different handle colours, each with three brush head colour options, the toothbrush’s slightly angled head maximises tooth surface coverage and the octagonal handle means patients hold the brush at the correct angle.

For even greater results in oral prophylaxis, the CS 12460 Velvet has more than double the number of bristles. Sensationally gentle on the teeth and gingivae, the density of the filaments supports an advanced brushing level that yields superb results. Starting and finishing each day using the CS 12460 Velvet will leave patients feeling confident with their smile, empowering them to continue harnessing the comfortable but comprehensive cleaning power of the brush.

Flavour of the week

The only thing better than an effective toothbrush is an effective toothbrush supported by a reliable toothpaste. The Curaprox range of Be You toothpastes is available in six exotic flavours:

  • Apple and Aloe
  • Gin and Tonic
  • Watermelon
  • Blackberry
  • Peach
  • Grapefruit

Their popping packaging colours and diversity in taste energises the daily dental care routine, whilst still causing lasting freshness due to included menthol pearls.

As well as its reliable fluoride content, each Be You toothpaste has whitening powers because of the hydroxylapatite and glucose oxidase in its unique formula. Also included are extracts of echinacea, bitter orange, devil’s claw and Indian pennywort to support the mucus membranes and help stop inflammation. Be You doesn’t just keep the teeth clean – it protects the oral cavity for an all-round healthier body.

Thorough like no other

To promote interdental cleaning as an essential part of the daily self-care routine, Curaprox presents the Super Duo pack. This combines the CS 5460 toothbrush with two CPS interdental brushes, encouraging patients to access and clean the tooth surfaces that a traditional brush cannot. A single in-and-out motion with a CPS brush will sufficiently clear the space of harmful food particles and bacteria, preventing gingivitis and halitosis.

 

For optimal handling, the Super Duo pack contains a UHS 425 Duo brush holder; this allows patients to alternate between CPS sizes quickly, keeping the oral hygiene routine simple but effective. For those who may struggle reaching the posterior interdental spaces, the CPS Prime Start packs come with a longer, angled interdental brush holder, allowing patients to more comfortably reach the distant areas and ensuring the teeth are as clean as can be.

Using the innovative Curaprox products on a daily basis empowers patients to take control of their oral hygiene; to start each day with the confidence that their teeth and gingivae are properly protected against oral disease.
