Fun Teeth Whitening Facts & Recipe
Teeth are a reflection of your bones, which I find fascinating! The Malic Acid in the strawberries will allow the particles that make stains on your teeth to break away, while the baking soda contributes to a whiter smile, and the brushing will help you remove stain-producing particles from your mouth.
Strawberry paste recipe:
Puree or crush one strawberry
Add ½ TSP of baking soda and mix well
Dip your toothbrush into the mixture and coat your teeth with the
mixture
Let sit on your teeth for about 5 minutes
Brush your teeth with your natural toothpaste
Make sure to get all the mixture off your teeth
Use a floss to pick all the seeds and other remnants from the crevice of your mouth
**Be aware that this method should only be used once every seven days, as overuse can lead to the
premature breakdown of your tooth enamel. It is also known to prevent tartar buildup and gingivitis.
Oh and here’s a bonus tip for Oral health & Teeth Whitening…
