Back To School Dental Care Gift Basket Idea #ad #BackToBold

Back To School Dental Care Gift Basket Idea #ad #BackToBold

Did you know that people who use LISTERINE® are more likely to do bold things than non-users? I assumed that, just like I assume that they are also more likely to do awesome stuff. I mean, I think Amber and I are pretty awesome. 😉 Seriously, though, it’s time to get back to school shopping. And that is not all about the school supplies, you know. Dental health is so important to your overall health. So I have this cool back to school dental care gift basket idea for you today. Make one for yourself and one for your college student and you can still practice great dental care together all year long.

Back To School Dental Care Gift Basket Idea

In just a few minutes, you can make a really thoughtful gift basket or care package full of items that your college student actually needs. No dental care gift basket would be complete without LISTERINE® Mouthwash. And don’t forget to grab some other LISTERINE® items to add to the dental care gift basket. I know that they offer a lot of really great items, and their mouthwash is my go-to brand, but I didn’t know they offered toothpaste! Nice! So, I made sure to grab one LISTERINE® Essential Care Toothpaste for Amber and one for myself. Amber and I both love LISTERINE® PocketMists so I got her some of those and picked up some floss for each of us. Voila!

Other things that go great in a dental care gift basket would be fruit {make sure you can deliver while the fruit is still fresh}, protein bars, a toothbrush. If your child is like mine and likes to pick out her own toothbrush, you could always put a gift card in the basket. And guess what – right now you can get a $5 Target Gift Card with your purchase of 3 LISTERINE® Mouthwashes at Target {either online or in-store}. Well, well, well. Isn’t that convenient? 😉 Get more details about that below.

A post shared by Dawn McAlexander (@thenewclassy) on Aug 7, 2017 at 11:10am PDT

My favorite LISTERINE® Mouthwash is LISTERINE® TOTAL CARE Mouthwash. I love it because it offers 6 benefits in one. The ones that matter most to me are that it helps to prevent cavities and it cleans your whole mouth. You really can’t do that with just brushing alone so you need to use a mouthwash to get the best clean possible. Also, it’s important to kill bad breath.

I also really love LISTERINE® TOTAL CARE ZERO ALCOHOL which has a milder, less intense minty flavor than LISTERINE® TOTAL CARE Mouthwash. It also offers 100% coverage between teeth and along the gum line which is more than what you can get from brushing and flossing alone. But that less intense flavor doesn’t mean less intense clean. You still get great cavity prevention and enamel restoration!

    Such a great idea for my stepson who is going back to college in a few weeks. He would really appreciate something like this!

    This is a really great idea! Oral hygiene is so important, so this is something I could do to make it more fun even for my daughter

    It is great to find an oral care line that you can trust and use for the whole family. I never used the Listerine toothpaste and floss so I will try those.

    Dental care is super important, but it is so easy to overlook. I love the idea of making a care package with a gift card to pick out your own toothbrush. A big shift for me was when I started flossing. That was such a good habit to get into.

  5. Karen Morse says

    This is such a good way to teach the kids about dental hygiene! I think it’s awesome to have a few dental care products for the kids to bring to school. It’s definitely good practice!

  6. Cassie says

    Listerine is certainly a trusted brand across many markets – it is number one here in Australia! Oral hygiene is just so important for all ages and building a good routine is essential

    I don’t have anyone to make a care package for specifically right now, but how nice would this be to put in our guest room for visitors who can’t pack their whole bathroom with them?

  8. Pam says

    I’m sure that teachers are tired of getting the same things every year, but this basket is definitely a different idea that I think the teacher would appreciate.

    I need to make sure that my kids know how to take good care of their teeth so I make it a point to prepare hygiene kits for them! I think this gift basket is a great idea!

    We love Listerine and use it daily. From the mouth wash to the pocket melty pieces. They all come in handy! My oldest uses the melty ones over gum, which is better for her teeth!

  11. Terri Steffes says

    August 8, 2017 at 12:17 pm

    Great package for a back to school event. I know that this would be appreciated for the college suite of girls that I sponsor every year at Cottey College!

  12. Terri Beavers says

    August 8, 2017 at 3:22 pm

    What a great idea for a gift pack. I’ll have to make some of these up for the kids going to college in our church. I’ve been trying to come up with an idea for a basket for them before they leave.

  13. Nicola says

    I have used Listerine in the past, they are really good…particularly the mouthwash. I am allergic to many oral products but Listerine has always been a safe one to use.

  14. Breena Blake says

    August 8, 2017 at 5:34 pm

    What cool idea! Dental care is so important. I have a water pick also that I like to put mouthwash in and use between my teeth.

  15. Rachel says

    August 8, 2017 at 9:43 pm

    We use this everyday at our house. THanks for the offer. We will have to go stock up.

  16. Amber Nelson says

    August 8, 2017 at 9:57 pm

    We all use Listerine in our house. This is a great idea for a gift basket. I might have to snag this idea.

    Listerine is an essential around here too. Mouthwash is the key to keeping fresh breath and that super clean feeling, and I have always been a fan of this one

    What a great, unusual idea for a gift basket! I am familiar with Listerine (we’ve used their mouthwash) but I had no idea they did any of the other products!

  19. Ashleigh Walls says

    August 9, 2017 at 10:56 am

    I love how fresh it feels after using Listerine. It’s definitely a must-have for back to school to keep that breakfast breath away.

  20. Ana De- Jesus says

    August 9, 2017 at 12:39 pm

    I use Listerine too it is a great brand for mouthwash. I like the idea of a dental care gift basket, that is real canny!

  21. Heather says

    August 9, 2017 at 5:33 pm

    What a great idea for back to school! I bet my daughter would be a lot more excited about her oral health if I gave her a fun gift basket!

  22. reesa says

    August 9, 2017 at 5:53 pm

    This is my favorite mouthwash. A couple of years ago I did a campaign with Listerine at their labs here in New Jersey. It was remarkable to see the difference in how much bacteria Listerine kills in her mouth vs not using the Listerine!

  23. Cassie Tucker says

    August 9, 2017 at 8:31 pm

    This is a great gift basket! Listerine makes the best teeth cleaning products. I’d love getting this basket before going back to school.

  24. Rebecca says

    August 9, 2017 at 8:51 pm

    I really enjoy LISTERINE products! And this gift basket is such a cute idea – perfect as a send off to university I think! So cute and I love the fact it’s pink haha

  25. Cindy Ingalls says

    August 9, 2017 at 9:01 pm

    This is a really great idea, especially for college kids who might not want to rush out and buy a bunch of dental goodies. But taking care of your teeth is essential for the long term health of your teeth and gums.

  26. Krystle Cook says

    August 11, 2017 at 4:28 pm

    This is such a great idea. I know that when I was younger I used to love to have everything new at back to school time. I never even thought about bathroom items.

  27. Stephanie says

    August 12, 2017 at 1:27 am

    What a great idea! Perfect for the busy college student is stressing over their studies and not their oral health! #client

  28. Toughcookiemommy says

    August 12, 2017 at 7:19 pm

    We use Listerine Total Care here at home. Not only does it taste great, but it is also an important part of our oral health regimen.

  29. Chelley @ A is For Adelaide says

    August 16, 2017 at 8:43 pm

    This is such a good idea! I know when I was in college I never bought the expensive beauty stuff I needed- like for my teeth! LOL.
