Natural Ways to Whiten Your Teeth
|
We all love seeing white, pearly smiles, and would love for our teeth to shine. However, our coffee, nicotine and other habits make this extremely difficult, and we end up with either stained or yellow teeth, that make us feel we are not getting our money's worth out of our smile! Although there are many whitening products, they don't all work and some have nasty side-effects. Here are 10 natural solutions that will whiten your teeth without subjecting your to other problems. |
| 1. Carbon powder Carbon is an absorbing material, which is capable of absorbing toxins, chemicals and acidic stains, leading them out of the body through the excretion system. Since it doesn't absorb into the body but only passes the digestion system, it is considered an effective solution to clean toxins. The same effect applies in the mouth cavity. Not only does the carbon help prevent gum disease and kills bacteria in the mouth, it can also whiten our teeth by absorbing the stains that accumulate on the tooth.
Dip a clean wet tooth brush in carbon powder and clean your teeth with little circular motions for 2 minutes. Then carefully and thoroughly rinse your mouth until all the powder is gone. Don't worry, it comes right off!
2. Aloe
The aloe plant has a long history as a healing agent, and although it is most known as skin medicine, recent research indicates it might be great for our teeth and gums. In 2009, the Academy for general dentisty in the US, found that smearing some aloe gel on the teeth may purify and calm down inflammation, as well as operate against bacteria. In addition, it was found that it can be used as a natural tooth whitener.
The best way to do so is use an extract of the center of the leaf. It's popularity as a tooth whitener has risen in recent years.
Please Note: Do not swallow the aloe gel as it may cause stomach cramps. Also, it is not recommend for use by pregnant women.
3. Banana
Another natural solution to whitening our teeth is found in the form of the banana peel. Research has found that the minerals inside the peel, such as Potassium and bromine, help whiten the teeth naturally without doing damage.
Cut the peel to little pieces, then rub the internal side of the banana on your teeth and do nothing for 15 minutes. Then rinse your mouth well. Some say the same can be achieved with an orange peel, and the same procedure applies.
4. Drinking Soda
One of the most common natural whitening solutions is drinking soda. Some mix it with regular toothpaste until a lumpy texture is achieved while some mix it with 3% Hydrogen peroxide, which serve as an anti-bacterial agent and keep the teeth and gum safe from bacteria.
5. Hydrogen Peroxide
Hydrogen peroxide can be used as its own whitening agent, if used as mouth wash. use a mix of 1:1 water and hydrogen peroxide and gurgle for about a minute. This will also neutralize bad odors and cleanse the mouth from bacteria.
6. Strawberries
One of the most popular solutions is the strawberry. The secret to this method is the malic acid found in the strawberry and which removes stains from the tooth coating, even hard stains like wine, cigarette and coffee stains. The method is to crush the strawberries to a pulp and then mix with drinking soda to get a thick and homogenous mixture.
Use a soft toothbrush to spread the mixture on the teeth. Leave for 5 minutes and then brush throughly with regular toothpaste to remove the rest of the mixture. If needed, use dental floss to get rid of any strawberry seeds.
However, don't over-use this method, as over time it can damage your tooth coating.
7. Fibers
Many believe that eating foods rich in fiber, like: Apples, pears, carrots, celery, broccoli and lettuce - can be used as a peeling technique for the teeth. The vitamins and minerals in these foods clean the tooth without damaging its coating.
8. Dairy Products
Recent research supports the recommendation to eat a small amount of cheese after a meal, as the calcium and phosphorus increase the tooth mineral coating, creating more white teeth. Milk and yogurt help keep the mouth cavity clean and shiny, and also strenghten the teeth.
9. Olive Oil
Many will testify to the usefullness of olive oil in whitening the teeth. THere are 2 ways to use it before brushing our teeth.
One: Add a few drops to your tooth brush. Two: Drip a few drops of olive oil on a clean hand towel and smear on the teeth.
10. Apple Vinegar
Apple vinegar can get insistent stains out, especially affective against coffee and nicotine stains. The result is not immediate, but with time (and after rinsing to make sure the acidity doesn't damage the teeth), you will see some nice results. After using it, though, brush and rinse throughly. |
