Good ways to whiten your teeth?!


Question: Good ways to whiten your teeth?
We used to have the strips you put on your teeth, but my mom through them out & probably isn't going to get more. I used them a couple times but really we hardly ever used them anyways. What are some other good ways to whiten your teeth?! I like my coffee (we have a coffee shop like Starbucks at my school), I drink it 4-5 times a week, so DON'T say to stop drinking it. Thanks!(:

Answers:

Here are some ways I found:

1) Crush the strawberry to a pulp, then mix with the baking soda until blended. Use a soft toothbrush to spread the mixture onto your teeth. Leave on for 5 minutes, then brush thoroughly with toothpaste to remove the berry–baking soda mix. Rinse. (A little floss will help get rid of any strawberry seeds.) Carrel says you can apply once a week. (health.com)

2) baking soda (webmd)

3) Some foods such as celery, apples, pears, and carrots trigger lots of saliva -- which helps to scrub away stains on your teeth. Chewing sugarless gum also triggers saliva, which helps eliminate teeth stains. A bonus from all that saliva: It neutralizes acid that causes tooth decay. With teeth, more saliva is better all around. (webmd)

4) Also if you drink some water and rinse out your mouth or brush your teeth after you drink coffee or any dark colored drinks that would help a lot :)

Good luck hope this works for you :)

Try brushing with crest 3d white toothpaste. Also a great natural way to whiten and keep your teeth and gums healthy, is by rubbing fresh strawberries on them. They contain many plaque fighting ingredients and are so good for your health.. and will actually whiten your teeth.. hope this helps



Using baking soda with teeth-whiting toothpaste is a simple way to whiten your teeth. It tastes gross, though, so brush your teeth again after. It's simple, cheap, and easy. And it works!



Honestly, the only really affordable easy way to whiten them fast is with the strips. Just get the ones that do it in 7 days. Easy



Get whiten toothpaste or/and whiten mouthwash I would use both since you're a coffee drinker
