COVID-19 pandemic has changed the way we live our daily lives. With many communities still in quarantine and new restrictions being issued around the country each week, we have all had to adapt in one way or another.

An interesting lifestyle change that has come out of the COVID-19 pandemic is the use of designer oral hygiene products.

Not surprisingly, non-designer product sales have declined slightly over the same period of time.
As we have discussed before, there is nothing wrong with designer toothpaste, as long as you’re looking at the label and making sure it contains the right ingredients. If you are looking to try a designer paste, here’s what you should look for:
