9 Natural Ways To Get Sparkling White Teeth: If you thought paying big bucks to get your dull teeth professionally whitened at the dental clinic is the only way to a pearly set, think again. If you only tried them, there are many other natural remedies that can help you get a bright winning smile. 1. Homemade Baking Soda And Hydrogen Peroxide Toothpaste: Make a paste of two teaspoons of baking soda and hydrogen peroxide (a bleaching agent) each in a small cup. You may even add a little mint flavoring – maybe even a little toothpaste. Use this mixture to brush your teeth, leaving in on for two minutes at a minimum. Then use ordinary toothpaste to brush your teeth again to take care of the taste of the peroxide solution. 2. Orange Peel Tooth Powder: You can have your cake and eat it too with oranges. Orange peels, when dried and ground to a coarse powder can make for a very useful whitening agent. Use this natural remedy daily to get a set of brighter teeth. 3. Chew Veggies: Try chewing raw vegetables, once a day. Raw vegetables are a healthy snack that helps in cleaning your teeth. Sugarcanes, apples, carrots, celery and other crunchy fruits and veggies promote blood flow and massage gums – thus keeping tissues healthy. 4. Salt Scrub: Using a little salt on your toothbrush while brushing your teeth will help in whitening them. Make sure you do not swallow the salt though. Although you get toothpastes in the market today with salt, it cannot beat some table salt or sea salt applied directly. 5. Turmeric-Lime-Salt Mix: For yellowish teeth treatment, you can also rub together a mixture of turmeric powder, powdered salt and lime juice on it. Repeating this process for about a fortnight will bring back the natural glow naturally. 6. Powdered Cloves and Lump Sugar: A mixture that promises white and healthy teeth on daily use, powdered cloves and lump sugar is an effective home remedy for yellowing teeth. Clove oil has long been used as for dental purposes. 7. Foil Treatment: Mix some toothpaste and baking soda together, and put them on a foil. Next, put the foil on your teeth and keep it there for an hour daily. After the time is over, brush your teeth normally. Welcome your teeth to a white heaven of dental health in a couple of days! 8. Avoid hot beverages and cigarettes: Teeth can become stained for a number of reasons, the most common being consumption of coffee and tea. If you still need your caffeine kick, there are many drinks available in the market today that contain caffeine. Meanwhile, smoking cigarettes leads to a gradual stain on teeth. 9. Brushing Commandments: Thou shalt brush your teeth every day - every 12 hours or after every meal. Thou shalt ensure that the bristles are not worn out and replace your brush regularly. Thou shalt take 2-3 minutes to brush carefully, even on the insides of the jaw. Like good tennis and cricket grip techniques, tooth-brushing technique is also an art in itself, and a very important one at that. Request your dentist for a presentation of the correct brushing method appropriate in your given situation. Sparkling white teeth are not only an asset of one’s beauty, they are also an indicator of one’s overall health in general, and dental health in particular. And there is hardly any need to add that bright white teeth do wonders for one’s confidence. With these natural remedies, you never need to be mistaken for being standoffish again !!
