Raise your hand if all you’ve ever wanted from life was a set of perfectly white teeth that looked like pearls! Well, teeth like that come at a price and the price is a dentist along with dental hygiene. But, we can help you get bright white teeth from the comfort of your home!
The following kitchen ingredients will leave you with naturally bright white teeth without harming your gums.
Coconut Oil Pulling
You must have heard about oil pulling?
Here’s what the deal is all about. Just take a tea spoon of coconut oil and swish it around your mouth for 5-10 minutes. The oil helps in removing build up of mild plaque as well as gives your gum a pink colour which in turn make your teeth look whiter.
Doing this once every week is a good idea.
Apple Cider Vinegar
Although the results of Apple Cider Vinegar are slow, but they’re worth the wait. Apple Cider Vinegar requires you to be consistent with its use and you will start seeing results in about a month’s time. Just apply it to your teeth daily. Afterwards, rinse your mouth and brush your teeth as you normally would and rinse your mouth again.
Don’t leave the vinegar in touch with your teeth for too long because the acid in it could actually harm your natural enamel.
Baking Soda
Baking soda is an excellent source of teeth whitening. Just add some to your toothpaste and brush as you normally would or if you think your stains are too set, mix it with some hydrogen peroxide and use that on your teeth for cleaning.
Although, you have to be super careful with it because too much can be abrasive and damage your teeth. Use it maybe once every 2 or 3 weeks.
Activated Charcoal
As funny as those videos on the internet seem, activated charcoal works for your teeth.Just mix some with your toothpaste or rub directly on your teeth. e careful around your gums though, it could stain them a funny colour!
