Read This Advice To Make Your Teeth Whiter

By Bob Green


There are various reasons to decide you whiten your teeth. Many people find that excessive coffee, tea and soda consumption, as well as smoking cigarettes, makes their teeth look stained and yellow. If you find that your teeth are not as white as they could be, try a few of the effective tips in the article below to get your teeth whiter and brighter.

Eat more foods with a crunchy texture. Celery, apples and carrots can help with the whiteness of your teeth. Crunchy foods are abrasive and can therefore, clean your teeth just by chewing them. However, for this method to be effective, bite into them in their natural state, don't cut them up first.

Strips for whitening your teeth are readily available over the counter and are also fairly inexpensive. You can put strips on your teeth and leave them on so that they make them whiter. Once popular, whitening strips have lost favor with many because of their poor results.

Although teeth whitening products and techniques for use at home may sound like a quick, easy way to get rid of the stains and discoloration on your teeth, they may cause adverse side effects, such as sensitivity or bleeding, inflamed gums. Ask a dental professional to recommend alternatives if you begin to experience any of these things.

It is important to make sure you not only brush, but also floss your teeth at least twice per day. This helps you fight plaque before it can build up and make your teeth look nasty and discolored. Do a thorough job when brushing and flossing your teeth before going to bed. That way, you can be sure that you've removed all the plaque that would otherwise be causing damage to your teeth throughout the night while you're sleeping.

To brighten teeth and eliminate stains, try using an orange peel. Gently rub the inside of the peel on your teeth. Another method is to mix the orange peels with bay leaves, and grind the mixture into a paste. This paste is then used to brush your teeth. After brushing with this homemade whitener, thoroughly rinse your mouth with water to remove the sugar from the oranges.

Despite the advertising, there is really no difference between whitening toothpastes and regular toothpastes. Avoid falling for expensive products that do little to whiten and brighten your tooth enamel. It's like taking your money and throwing it away.

To make sure your smile stays white while drinking any stain causing beverages, drink water immediately after. Coffee, tea or soda contains dark pigments that could stain your teeth but water will wash this away. Enjoy dark beverages through a straw to avoid direct contact with your front teeth.

Take some advice from the beauty pageant circuit and use Vaseline on the surface of your teeth. While it won't taste very good, it will provide a barrier that shields your teeth from staining for several hours.

Now that you've read these tips, are you ready to hear people say that YOUR smile is perfect? When you've whitened your teeth, people will respect you as a different person than you were before. Apply the tips you read in this article today to start on the road to respect!
