From celeb mouthwash to classic salt toothpaste – my smile-saving heroes for National Smile Month
WHY do we have so many awareness days, weeks and months? Some of them seem utterly ridiculous. The health related ones, though, are a good idea. It is National Smile Month. One in three adults have tooth decay, so this campaign promotes eating less sugar and processed food, drinking more water and visiting the dentist. And I've put some products to the test to help you smile . . . MOUTHWASH 3 IF ever there was a man who says 'teeth' it is TV presenter Rylan Clark – his are gleaming! And he has teamed up with British oral care brand Waken. I am not always keen on products pushed by celebs, but Rylan believes in Waken and has invested in it. I like it too. I love their whitening toothpaste and the Waken Advanced Care Mouthwash. It is made with natural peppermint, strengthens enamel with fluoride, and comes in a recycled bottle. This is alcohol free and a 500ml bottle costs £5. The company has just started selling in major supermarkets. See CHEWING GUM I CHEW so much gum I could put a cow to shame – but not all gums are good for you thanks to the sweeteners, sugar and chemicals in them. But some do have health benefits. Peppersmith is one such example. It contains the plant-based sweetener xylitol and is approved by the Oral Health Foundation. Chewing sugar-free gum with xylitol after meals, is scientifically proven to reduce cavities, neutralise harmful acids, and keep breath fresh. Xylitol is a natural sugar alternative that bacteria cannot digest, meaning it actively fights tooth decay. Dentist explains risks of 'Turkey teeth' and other dentistry abroad It also helps to strengthen enamel – unlike sugary mints and gum that mask bad breath and contribute to cavities. The gum comes in mint, lemon and strawberry flavours. I wasn't keen on the fruity ones – but the mint is great and is £1.35 for 15g at Sainsbury's. See TOOTHPASTE SALT toothpaste made by Weleda has been around for more than 100 years, but has soared into the brand's list of bestsellers in the last two years. That's because it is a chemical-free, eco-friendly toothpaste popular with those looking to avoid additives – there are no detergents, bleaches, foam boosters or optical brighteners in the product. No fluoride either – some people are worried that too much can lead to dental fluorosis or skeletal fluorosis, which can damage bones and joints. While rare, fluorosis is a factor. This toothpaste uses sodium bicarbonate, which is a salt that breaks down to form sodium and bicarbonate in water. This helps to promote healing in the mouth, and to ease ulcers, cuts and sore patches. It is totally free from microplastics too. It tastes like bicarbonate of soda but my mouth felt really fresh after using. I liked it. It's priced at £5.95 for 75ml. See

TONY HETHERINGTON: Help! Storage firm lost entire contents of our five-bed home
Tony Hetherington is Financial Mail on Sunday's ace investigator, fighting readers corners, revealing the truth that lies behind closed doors and winning victories for those who have been left out-of-pocket. Find out how to contact him below. Mrs J.P. writes: We put the contents of our five-bedroom home into long-term storage, costing £200 per month. We had retired to Spain, but returned to the UK and contacted the storage firm to have our goods delivered to our new home. It then informed us that it had accidentally disposed of them. Tony Hetherington replies: It has taken months of enquiries to unravel everything that took place. You first put your belongings into storage in 2017, but in 2018 your mother-in-law was nearing the end of her life so you returned to the UK and your belongings were returned to you. In 2019 you and your husband put everything into storage again and went back to Spain. Last year you decided to return to this country, but were then told your belongings had gone. The name of the storage company you gave me was Herts And Essex Removals Limited, which you told me was run by Martin Sontag. But this was impossible. That company did not exist until 2021, and it was compulsorily dissolved by Companies House in March last year so it cannot have been trading when you came home several months later. I asked you to search out your agreement and you came up with a slightly different company name, Herts & Essex Removals & Storage Ltd, based at Matching Green in Essex. The agreement pledged: 'Your furniture and effects are covered to a substantial £100,000.' I checked, and this company was formed in 2011. But no one named Sontag was involved, and it was voluntarily dissolved in 2013. Judging by the dates, you should have been dealing with another of this crop of similarly named companies, Herts and Essex Removal and Storage Ltd – not 'Removals', with an 's'. This was set up in 2012 and, yes, it was run by Martin Sontag. The snag was, it went bust in 2018. Martin Sontag borrowed over £30,000 before the business collapsed, and is repaying this gradually. So you may have put your belongings into storage with this company in 2017, and got them back in 2018, but when everything went into storage again in 2019 it cannot have been with this company because it was in liquidation. So just who were you paying? No surprise, you were paying Martin Sontag himself. Your husband told me: 'We always paid him cash as this was his preferred method of payment.' The money was handed over by a family member and you repaid them. When the bad news came about the loss of your possessions, Martin Sontag explained that he told his employees to prepare your belongings to be returned, and on the same day other items that were not yours were to be dumped. The instructions were accidentally reversed. He stressed he had a 'gold plated insurance policy', but his inventory of your possessions was on a corrupted computer drive. You put together your own list, and insurance giant Sedgwick, the company handling the claim on behalf of Axa, offered you £4,700. You asked me, how could you replace the contents of an entire house for £4,700! Armed with your signed authority, I asked Sedgwick for a copy of the policy. It refused, but did tell me that the insurance did not provide 'new for old' replacement cover. And Sedgwick then slashed its offer to just £2,800. But who would pay £200 a month to store goods worth only £2,800? Martin Sontag was more helpful, and gave me a copy of the policy. It was made out to him personally. He also produced his agreement with you, in the name of one of the companies that had ceased to exist. He told me he had bought its customer base. Without realising it, you had been switched from a contract with a company to a cash-in-hand deal with an individual. On the brighter side, Martin Sontag told me the damaged computer had been repaired, but the inventory did not match your own. He said your inventory showed items not on his, and you told me that he had failed to list some items. I explained to Sedgwick that there was no way I could encourage you to accept £2,800. It had to think again, and it did. When you received the new offer, it had rocketed to just under £15,000. Absurdly, it was accompanied by an alleged copy of your storage deal – in the name of the company that folded in 2013. I invited Sedgwick's legal team to explain this. The question was clearly too difficult as they failed to answer. I have discussed the offer with you, so I can now report that you have accepted it. Isn't it amazing that an insurance payout can shoot up by 400 per cent! And, of course, the payment you have accepted lets Sedgwick and Axa off the hook, but Martin Sontag could still be impaled if you feel it falls short. Handing over your worldly goods to a storage firm should not involve sleepless nights, loss of belongings or a lengthy battle for fair payment, yet that is what you faced and you deserve a fair outcome.
