Listerine Oral Care Strips

Another check up at the dentist and yet another filling. Despite being lucky enough to be registered with an NHS dentist, a filling still sets me back £60+. Maybe it was time to cut back on my consumption of Extra Strong Mints and reduce the risk of further fillings? I needed to find a substitute for my mints but drew the line at chewing gum as it always looks a bit tacky and impolite. I don't think that my employer would be too happy so see me dealing with clients whilst chewing gum. So I had a scout round Boots in my lunch hour and spotted Listerine Actives. They claim to be sugar free, so I ... more

I smoke. I smoke a lot. Perhaps this has something to do with my job – I work in a smoking warehouse in the armpit of London, and I’m on the phone most of the day. This is a bad combination. Smoking has many consequences – many dire, others simply irritating to either myself or those around me.

After recently trying the Wrigleys variety of these new strips, I decided to sample the Listerine version to see how they compared. I shall now share my experiences with you all. The idea of these strips is that you place one onto the tounge and allow to desolve. This apparently helps to kill germs and provides long lasting freshened breath. Well thats the plan anyway!!! One major disadvantage of this product is that at around £1 for just 24 strips seems quite steep. They can be purchased from all supermarkets and chemists, and also various cornershop/convinience stores are now stocking them ... more

I saw these and thought I’d give them a try, people in my office seem to take them all the time, why should I miss out I thought!! When I was in the shop, I found them and chucked them into my basket (I never generally read labels in the shop!!) ** What are they? ** They are “Oral Care Strips”. These are dissolvable strips, which the makers claim to give instant freshness, and to kill germs for fresh breath! ** What’s the Packet like? ** They come in an outer wrapper, which has loads of writing all over it.
