Natural Teeth WhitenersTeeth whitening concerns a lot of people. However, what concerns them even more is the cost that comes with getting teeth whitening professionally done. Good thing there are natural teeth whiteners. Natural teeth whiteners address both your concerns with teeth whitening and cost by giving you impressive results without creating a hole in your pocket. |
Besides being relatively inexpensive, the ingredients that you use for natural teeth whiteners are also very easy to find, with most typically available in a grocery store near you. In fact, you might even have a slew of teeth whiteners at home without even realizing it. To help you get started, take the time to familiarize yourself with what these ingredients are and what you have to do to prepare them. Don't be intimidated by preparations since they normally just involve combining the ingredients and nothing more. |
- Lemons and strawberries – these fruits work because they are acidic, working their way into the enamel to lift off stains and reveal whiter teeth. However, do exercise caution when using these fruits as natural teeth whiteners because too much acid can damage the tooth instead. Strawberries also have sugars so don't forget to brush your teeth after using.
- Hydrogen peroxide – hydrogen works because it bleaches the teeth. Just how white your teeth become depends though on how strong the hydrogen peroxide solution you use is as well as how long you use it. Generally though, the solution is used as a rinse twice a day. Keep in mind that it does not taste good. Don't swallow.
- Baking soda – has bleaching properties; may be used as a paste, made by combining baking soda and water or baking soda and hydrogen peroxide for double the bleaching effect or may be used on its own. Just dip your toothbrush into some baking soda and brush accordingly. Safe even when swallowed.

- Don't forget to assess the color of your teeth before you start to help you keep track of your progress. If you want to take a before photo, then that is fine.
- Your teeth have discolored over time so it's only natural for them to also whiten in due time. Just make sure you stick to using your natural teeth whiteners regularly for optimum results.
- Since some teeth whiteners, such as lemons and strawberries, cannot be used everyday, you can instead opt to use different whiteners and alternate their use. For example, you use lemons and strawberries on weekends and then switch to baking soda during weekdays.
