Domestic Ideas for Whitening of Teeth
Teeth stains are one of
the most common dental problems of the day and it is often overlooked as a
dental problem or ignored. But this is where the complications begin. There are
various factors that are responsible for the trouble. Some of the most frequent
causes of teeth staining are ageing, smoking and consumption of tobacco, poor
dental concerns, frequent consumption of beverages like coffee and tea and
certain medications.
Home remedies for teeth whitening
•Usage of Baking soda is
an effective treatment for the stained teeth. Baking soda not only whitens the
teeth but cleans the teeth as well and has been in use for many centuries. Mix
baking soda with water and a pinch of salt making it into a fine paste. Brush
your teeth with this mixture twice a week and remove all the baking soda off
the mouth by rinsing well. This can also be used as a remedy for the burning
tongue syndrome.
•A tasty remedy for
whitening teeth is the use of strawberries. Strawberries contain a natural acid
that is responsible for the whitening. They can both be crushed and used as a
paste or just be rubbed onto the teeth. But one must be careful enough to brush
the teeth clean after the application as they are likely to soften the enamel
of the teeth.
•Another cost-effective
method of whitening teeth at home is to use hydrogen peroxide and most of the
teeth whitening kits include hydrogen peroxide. It can be used either
exclusively or with baking soda. After the usage of this compound, there is a
burning sensation in the gums which disappears after a short span of time. But
be careful not to ingest the chemical.
•Lemon juice, considered
to be natural bleach is another alternative that can best serve to remove the
teeth stains. You can squeeze the lemon on the tooth brush and brush you teeth
or rubbing the skin of the lemon onto the teeth. Lemon juice can also be mixed
with salt and applied on the teeth. This mixture, apart from whitening teeth,
also cleans them. Orange peel can also equally help.
