Keep your smile bright and white with easy steps

Brush teeth with some baking soda. Do this about one or two times a week. The baking soda acts like a mask for your teeth and it does an amazing job at absorbing stains and polishing.

Cut a strawberry in half, swipe it and massage it across your teeth. The naturally occurring alpha hydroxy acids will help to gently whiten and brighten and leave you looking good.

Oil pulling (use sesame or olive oil), By swishing and swirling just a little bit of oil in your mouth in the morning like a mouthwash, this will stimulate enzymes which will fight bacteria in your mouth all day.

It is so important to floss every single day. Flossing reduces the plaque that hides in between your teeth and it also has a body benefit. It helps to reduce plaque in your arteries which leaves your body and your heart healthier.

An apple a day keeps the dentist away. Apples are like nature's very own toothbrush. They work like an astringent for your teeth and the pectin serves to polish and perfect.

You've got to drink a lot of water. That way you keep things moving and grooving in your mouth and then bacteria can't camp out in the crevices of your teeth.

Avoid these things, sugar, juices, carbonated beverages like soda, red wine, coffee, tea, and finally smoking, blah, no alcohol.

Alcohol-based mouthwashes can dehydrate and damage your gums. Instead make your own. All you have to do is grab your favorite essential oil, cinnamon, clove, peppermint all work. Pour eight to ten drops in a little bit of distilled water, stick in the fridge, swish around in the a.m. for an early wakeup, and you'll be smiling like a samurai.

Chew gum after meals. Chewing gum with Xylitol is actually incredible for your teeth, why? Bacteria can't even survive in a Xylitol rich environment. They just can't attach to your choppers. So, what's best for your health is for you to chew. Chew for a cause. Practice this advice and you're sure to have tip top teeth..
