April 20, 2016 Style, Style, Trend and Beauty Achieve a Pearly White Smile With these At-Home Remedies Having white teeth can boost anyone’s self-esteem. And, getting a bright, white smile all year long can be achieved with just a few simple steps. Causes of Teeth Discoloration First, let’s understand what actually gives your teeth that horrible yellow stain. Citrus and acidic foods, like fruits and tomatoes, are a main factor into what causes teeth discoloration. Sorry java junkies, coffee causes discoloration because it contains tannins (acidic polyphenols), which is basically another form of acid. Do you remember when your parents always claimed that sugar is going to rot your teeth? Well, they weren’t entirely wrong. Sugar and salt latches onto teeth and stains them. Another obvious trigger for this staining is smoking cigarettes. But, you don’t need to sit in a dentist’s chair for pearly white teeth. Here are some at-home alternatives for a quick whitening treatment. Crest White Strips These whitening strips always do the trick. If these are too expensive, the store brand of teeth whitener is ideal for performing the same results for a lower price. Bright Lipstick Wearing bright lipstick like red or coral will allow you to achieve the illusion of a whiter smile in a time crunch. This is perfect for the unexpected photo-ops. Coconut Oil This multi-purpose oil can be used in multiple ways to lighten teeth naturally. The first way is to add a few drops of this magical oil to your toothbrush or wash cloth and simply brush it on. For a more intense clean, put a spoonful in your mouth and swish it between your teeth for about 10 minutes. Apple Cider Vinegar This sour vinegar is another natural alternative to teeth whitener. It is proven to work as a natural teeth whitener if you are consistent for at least a month. Just brush your teeth with ACV, and then continue by brushing them again with your regular toothpaste back-to-back. Some may even say this method looks like a professional whitening – sign us up! Use a Straw Instead of drinking soda, coffee, tea or wine without one, a straw can really help out in preventing stains. These drinks can cause some serious enamel damage and cause discoloration no matter how tasty they may be. If you aren’t a fan of straws, try to brush your teeth frequently after drinking beverages. Upgrade There are many pro-whitening toothpastes on the market now. Making the switch from your regular paste to one with a whitening formula may just be what you need to achieve your pearly whites.
