Church & Dwight Co., Inc., the maker of ARM & HAMMER™ has announced that pop sensation One Direction is joining the 

ARM & HAMMER™ Tooth Tunes™ branded products family.

With the new products, teens can brush their teeth along with Niall, Zayn, Liam, Harry and Louis to their favorite One Direction songs. It’s like a private One Direction concert in their mouth.

Two new ARM & HAMMER™ Tooth Tunes™ toothbrushes will be available, each featuring a chart-topping single from One Direction:

		“What Makes You Beautiful” performed by One Direction

		“One Thing” performed by One Direction

Similar to the nine Tooth Tunes™ toothbrushes launched in July 2012, each One Direction ARM & HAMMER™ Tooth Tunes™ toothbrush features two minutes of music to encourage longer brushing and ensure that kids achieve the dentist’s recommended brushing time.

“We’re thrilled to announce our partnership with One Direction and are sure that kids will not only enjoy brushing along with the pop phenomenon, but will have better brushing habits as a result,” said Tim Seitter, VP of oral care marketing at Church & Dwight Co., Inc.

ARM & HAMMER™ Tooth Tunes™ Music in Your Mouth™ technology streams sound vibrations from the bristles of the toothbrush through the teeth, allowing kids to hear music while they brush.

This patented technology delivers high quality sound by broadcasting music into the jaw, which is then transmitted through the inner ear, allowing the person brushing their teeth to hear the music.

The ARM & HAMMER™ Tooth Tunes™ One Direction toothbrushes have a suggested retail price of $9.99 and became available at mass, drug, and food retailers nationwide this month.

at Chicago Dental Society’s Midwinter Meeting  Celebration of Smiles reception updates dentists on the foundation’s latest programs and successes.

A child’s smile shouldn’t cause embarrassment or pain.

Yet, there are millions of children who suffer from pediatric dental disease, a preventable disease that can lead to so many problems and unnecessary pain. That’s why 

The National Children’s Oral Health Foundation

 exists, to eliminate pediatric dental caries by providing programs and comprehensive resources to deliver community based prevention, educational and treatment services.

After the first day of the2013 Chicago Dental Society’s Midwinter Meeting came to a close, dental professionals who believe in this organization and what it does gathered for a reception Thursday evening at the Hyatt Regency Ballroom. They were treated to food, cocktails and an update on the foundation’s programs.

Dr. Gordon Christensen gave the audience an overview on various programs, including:

		The Oral Health Zone Program, which brings together community stakeholders to educate about the importance of oral health

		Dentists by Designation, which celebrates dentists who commit to oral health promotion within their community

		Tomorrow’s SMILES, a program that enables teenagers who otherwise couldn’t receive treatment to get the treatment they need, pro bono. These teens then pay it forward by serving as mentors in their community.

		Students United for America’s ToothFairy, which engages students in promoting oral health in their community

		America’s ToothFairy Kid’s Club, a program designed to send children personalized messages and get them excited about oral health

		The Ester Wilkins International Education Program and Legacy League, which is now in 100 dental hygiene schools with 400 hygienists involved. By 2016, they expect to reach 1 million caregivers and children with this program.

Savannah Robinson, 14, an America’s ToothFairy ambassador, shared her story with the audience. She was bullied as a child, and was embarrassed by her smile. She was recommended to participate in the Tomorrow’s SMILES program through the Boys and Girls Club, an America’s ToothFairy partnership that is set to expand to 4,000 clubs nationwide. Savannah couldn’t be more grateful for what Tomorrow’s SMILES has given her.

“It’s so amazing they’re going to help fix me,” she said” They’re going to give me a smile. It means the world.”

The teen sang “Beautiful” at Thursday night’s reception, and the audience responded with a standing ovation.

“This is Tomorrow’s SMILES,” President and CEO Fern Ingber said. “This is what it’s about.”

Probably not a guide you'll be requesting for your dental practice ... right? 

How to brush your teeth like a man

During the hectic workday, moving from patient to patient, don’t turn to the easiest fast-food lunch. Make it nutritious, make it easy. Here’s how. 

Sometimes the day can get so hectic we forget to even take the time to eat. Or, we turn to the easiest solution: grabbing the fast meals, usually not the healthiest.

That routine won’t get you anywhere when it comes to your health or mood.

Maintaining healthy choices throughout the day - even when patients arrive one after the other through the door - is of extreme importance.

Here are easy ways to make sure you are snacking and eating nutritious even when you don’t have a lot of time to think about it.

 Before work, quickly throw a few handfuls of granola or nuts in a bag. It can be your go-to snack instead of vending machine offerings and give you a small energy burst. Don’t bring the whole bag with you because you’ll risk eating more than the recommended serving size.

Bring fruit to work and stash some Greek yogurt in the practice refrigerator. These healthy foods will help get you through the afternoon slump.

Your desktop can be very germy. If you’re eating there, make sure to clean the surface completely and not touch your computer, mouse or other surfaces while eating. Consider it your laptop breather moment of the day. 

Bring a washable drink container with you to the practice and continually monitor your water intake. Everyone should get at least 8 glasses a day. It keeps you healthy, and another boost, it keeps you feeling full.

You should eat something, even a little something, every four hours. This can be hard during busy workdays, that’s why keeping quick go-to snacks around are very important. 

Pack your lunch for the next day the evening before. Mornings are too hectic, and if there is nothing ready for you the next day, you’ll likely turn to unhealthy options. Consider these options:

 Make a pot of nutritious chili, soup or stew for dinner and save a small container to bring for lunch the next day.

 If there is a microwave in your practice, take a sweet potato with you. To cook it at the office, poke holes in skin with fork and cook 5−7 minutes, turning halfway through. Then serve it with low-fat yogurt and a dash of cinnamon.

 Cold strips of grilled chicken from last night’s dinner with honey mustard dip.

 Wraps are easy to make the night before, and don’t include all that filling bread. Make them with whole wheat tortillas containing either lean cold cuts or low fat cream cheese topped with veggie slices.

 Freeze leftover dinner freeze portion sizes and grab them a couple of weeks down the road for lunch.
