Press Release Summary: Make Tooth Brushing Anything But Routine with Fire Fly®
Products from Dr. Fresh®

Press Release Body: (Los Angeles, CA - 12-08-2008) - New teachers.new books.freshly
sharpened pencils. It's the new school year, and each child begins with a clean
slate. This fall, make sure that they also head back to class with clean, sparkling
smiles.
"Kids and parents everywhere are re-adjusting to school year rhythms. Now is also
the perfect time to re-establish healthy routines outside the classroom," says
Steven J. Brattesani, D.D.S., a San Francisco, California dentist. "In summer,
good habits like regular, thorough tooth brushing tend to fizzle faster than
fireworks on the Fourth of July. Kids also tend to eat more candy, ice cream and
soda in the summer, so it's especially important to get them brushing more often
and better," says Brattesani.
One company, Anaheim-based Dr. Fresh, makes it easy and fun with its bright and
engaging Fire Fly® toothbrush, Fire Fly® Anti-Cavity Fluoride Toothpaste, and
Firefly® MouthSwooshT Anti-Cavity Fluoride Rinse. Each has a colorful light-up
component that gets kids excited about brushing and "times" them -- making sure they
brush or rinse long enough to be effective.
Backed by extensive research and development, the soft bristle Fire Fly toothbrush
(the best-selling children's toothbrush on the market) contains an LCD light that
incorporates "blinking technology," flashing for 60-seconds when touched at the
base. The Fire Fly allots for one-minute upper and one-minute lower teeth brushing,
separating the cycles to ensure that kids get into the pattern of one solid minute
on each arch. SRP $1.99. Echoing the "minute-per-arch" mandate is the Fire Fly®
Anti-Cavity Fluoride Toothpaste cap - which has its own LCD timer light that is
activated by pressing. The sparkly pink toothpaste features a kid-friendly
bubble-gum flavor and is sugar-free, making parents equally happy. SRP $2.99.

For added cavity protection, kids will love finishing off their oral care routine
with Firefly® MouthSwooshT Anti-Cavity Fluoride Rinse. This alcohol- and
sugar-free, bubble gum-flavored rinse also features a light-up timer cap that
flashes for thirty seconds, the proper "swooshing" time. SRP $4.99.
Dr. Fresh's light-up timers are so effective at getting kids to brush, Moms may
start to wonder why there's no such device for homework on the market.
The Fire Fly line is among the many oral care innovations from Buena Park,
California's DR. FRESH®. Dr. Fresh manufactures a host of popular and affordable
oral care and personal health products (www.drfresh.com).
