Case Study Details
Guess what ⁉️ @MumbaiIndians just made Dental Tests MANDATORY for the entire squad. Why? Because Dental Health impacts On-field performance. 🦷
Curious?
Here’s the science: Germs in your mouth can enter the bloodstream, triggering inflammation that can compromise muscle recovery and agility. That’s why the MI Paltan’s choice is Colgate Total.
Our patented formula is 3X more effective* at fighting germ build-up preventing dental problems before they even start.
Our best toothpaste, for the very best.
Get ready! This season is going to be a TOTAL game-changer! 🏏

CONTEXT
In India, toothbrushe blind spot. Since they don't deplete
like shampoos and soaps, Indians often forget to replace them
for months, causing them to fray beyond all reasonable limits.
It’s gone so out of hand that the average Indian toothbrush
now looks less like a brush, and more like some exotic wildflower
And with frayed toothbrushes causing gum damage, cavities,
sensitivity and more, the issue had finally reached the scale of
an oral health crisis in the country,
IDEA
We meticulously recreated the visual lanquage of botanical
photography to tum India’s old toothirushes into a historic
new flower species, that sparked national curiosity. Led bya
highly publicised photo exhibition at Mumbai Botanical Gardens,
these mesmerising images stunned viewers, and QR codes
offered to show footage of the flowers blooming - exposing
the ugiy truth behind them. Finally, viewers were taken to a
microsite where they could immediately buy a new toothbrush.
