Our children’s health is our top priority, and oral health is a quintessential part of their overall good health. In light of this, Colgate conducted dental camps across the country. I took my son along for a free dental check up at the camp in my city. Little did I know that I was in for an eye-opening session on my child’s dental issues. Read on, for my experience with the Colgate dental camp and valuable advice for keeping your kids teeth healthy and strong, lifelong.
I happened to drive past the Colgate dental check on my way to my son’s school. I had been meaning to take him to the dentist, so I took up this chance to get him checked-up at the dental camp.
But here’s the real shocker: we found out not only about his cavities, but a whole lot of other dental issues, too! I had a hoard of questions, the biggest of which was- why did this happen when we brush twice?
I received some really sound advice: while brushing twice a day is important, so is flossing and gum care. Another important determinant to dental health is one’s diet. A good, daily dose of calcium ensures that our children grow up healthy and strong. Did you know that Calcium not only makes the jaw bones healthy and strong to hold the teeth in place, but also improve your oral health by better fortifying teeth against oral bacteria?
Colgate also gave me dental cards to share with my friends and family, which entitled them to get free dental check ups from a list of dentists across the country. Turns out, 3 out of the 5 friends who received the free check-up, found out that their kids had cavities! Kudos to Colgate for this wake-up call.
After a few days, I received a lovely hamper from Colgate. This beautifully wrapped, power-packed, calcium-rich hamper, was full of cheese, oranges, beans, almonds, pistachios, and dates. Reaching the daily requirement of calcium with this hamper, is going to be a breeze!
But here’s the best part of the hamper: the all new Colgate Strong Teeth with Amino Shakti, gives 4x strengthening power. I also received a video which explained how the Colgate Strong teeth helps to add natural calcium to the teeth through remineralization process and strengthens them from within. Healthy gums, plaque removal and germ protection along with clean teeth and fresh breath – the benefits of this toothpaste are way too many!
Now, thanks to Colgate, I know how to take care of my son’s dental health better
I will try my best to ensure that he gets his daily dose of natural calcium, especially now that he is losing his milk teeth and growing new ones!
Colgate – is going to be replaced! By whom, you ask? By the even better all new Colgate Strong Teeth with Amino Shakti, it gives 4x strengthening power. The best just got even better, and it’s about time you upgraded, too!

Wohi toh sirf brushing hi important nahin hai, getting checked by dentist is too important. After reading your post on Insta, I took Ojas to a dentist nearby. He suggested finger massaging the gums too.
Ab baat Colgate ki…
Na jaane kitne saalon se humari zindagiyon ko chhute aaya hai Colgate. ❤
