How do you use baking soda to clean your teeth? ( when and how)?!


Question: Baking soda can be used to clean you teeth in leu of toothpaste. Just mix about a quarter teaspoon with a little bit of water to make a paste. Try adding a little peroxide for a little extra disinfectant strength.

I would like to add that you should not brush your teeth exclusively with baking soda if you drink a lot of bottled water. This could lead to a lack of floride and make your teeth sensative, brittle or soft.

If you would like to switch to using baking soda as a toothpaste, drink tap water regularly, or get some floride suppliment to put on your teeth

Put some baking soda in your palm and wet your toothbrush and stick it in the soda so the soda sticks to the wet brush and brush your teeth. Soda does not foam like toothpaste, so spit and dip your toothbrush in the soda again and then lick the last of the soda from your hand and brush your tongue. You can also put a few drops of hydrogen peroxide in the soda to make a thick paste and use it to brush.

They do make toothpaste with baking soda in it now:)
