5 Quick Ways To Naturally Brighten Your Smile

Has all the indulgence from Easter weekend caused you to worry your suffering from yellow teeth? Maybe your pearly whites aren’t so bright after munching on that third chocolate egg…it’s OK, we’ve all been there.

Although professional teeth whitening can be expensive as well as making your teeth sensitive, Goss.ie have some solutions to getting your smile sparkling without the expense or discomfort.

Looking for something quick then try these natural remedies:

 

1. Baking soda and lemon

Baking soda and lemon juice is an age old combination that is sure to give you an instant teeth brightening effect.

Simply done, all you have to do is grab a teaspoon of baking soda and add a squeeze of lemon juice before mixing the two together to make a thick paste.

Using a toothbrush, apply the paste all over teeth, leave on for 45 seconds and rinse away to reveal a bright white smile.

2. Activated charcoal

We understand this looks a bit strange but activated charcoal is a miracle worker to naturally get rid of stubborn stains from the teeth.

To use this technique just break an activated charcoal capsule, which you can grab from any health store, directly onto a toothbrush and brush your teeth thoroughly.

Leave the charcoal on for 2-3 minutes before you rinse off to find sparkling nashers.

3. Floss

We understand this is meant to be a given but sometimes flossing falls to the waist side when it comes to people’s dental routine.

However many dentists and hygienists insist that flossing is more important than brushing.

Using floss twice a day can easily remove the staining between your teeth making them whiter.

 

4. Strawberries

If there’s any more reason to get a punnet of Strawberries now’s the time.

Containing Vitamin C, strawberries helps to get rid of plague build-up.

To make your pearly whites white mash-up a few strawberries then grab a toothbrush, spread all over your teeth.

Leave on your teeth for 3-4 minutes before you rinse and brush your teeth with your regular toothbrush.

 

5. Eat crunchy fruits and veggies

We’re sorry there’s no wine, coffee or chocolate on this list instead it’s all about the crunchy veg and fruit to get your teeth white.

Apples, celery and carrots are all great for your teeth with crunchy fruit or vegetables acting like nature’s toothbrush – scrubbing away surface stains.

Simply chewing removes excess food and bacteria from your mouth with the acids in the fruits and vegetables keeping the teeth whiter.

Apples contain malic acid, the chemical also found in strawberries (and teeth whitening products) that removes those stains.
