Toothpaste brand Colgate Total has teamed up with the American Diabetes Association for the eighth consecutive year to help raise awareness of the potential link between oral health and diabetes.

The new Laugh Out Loud campaign features comedic actress Yvette Nicole Brown, who commented 'When I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in 2013, one way I worked through the challenges and lifestyle changes was with humour. I'm excited to partner with Colgate Total to give the diabetes community a reason to come together, laugh and learn how to better manage our oral health and diabetes'.
