How Do You Get Healthy White Teeth?
Dentist Reveals Secrets
Getting healthy white teeth is everybody’s desire. White teeth significantly increase the aesthetic appearance of the teeth and also enhance the overall appearance. Most people would want to get a perfect grin and one area for that is getting white teeth. Dentists reveal that the teeth are normally light yellowish in color because of the exposure of the enamel to most substances and food.
It is impossible to maintain white teeth as white as the teeth of infants and children because of the exposure to food and beverages. However, because of technological advances, it has been feasible to regain the whiteness of the teeth and people may even have sparkling white teeth.
However, most people cannot afford these expensive therapies from dentists in order to whiten their teeth. In these regard, many people only dream about that perfect grin most celebrities have. But no worries anymore because some natural remedies help whiten the teeth as effective as the dental treatments for teeth whitening. The following presents some of the effective remedies in order to whiten the teeth and improve dental health as part of women’s health:
Baking soda
Baking soda or sodium bicarbonate is one of the most effective treatments to whiten the teeth. Baking soda when placed on the teeth creates an abrasive action to remove the tartar and plaque on the surface of the teeth.
Mix baking soda with water to make a paste. Apply the baking soda paste on the teeth and leave for a few minutes. Rinse thoroughly.
You can do this treatment once or twice a week. Avoid placing the baking soda for more than 5 minutes because it may corrode the enamel and may also irritate the gums.
Strawberries
Strawberries aside from being an appealing ingredient in salads can also be used to whiten the teeth. Strawberries contain malic acid, which is one of the most effective natural remedy to whiten the teeth. Mix strawberries with baking soda to have more effective results.
Crush the strawberries and make a paste by mixing it with baking soda. Apply the mixture on the teeth for 5 minutes and rinse with water. You can also brush the teeth using the paste. Malic acid effectively removes the discoloration in the teeth.
Lemon
Lemon also contains malic acid that may help whiten teeth. Apply the lemon juice on the teeth and rinse with lukewarm water. Make sure not to leave lemon juice for more than 10 minutes on the teeth because it may cause irritation of the oral mucosa.
Hydrogen Peroxide
Hydrogen peroxide is used by dentists to whiten teeth. In fact, it is one of the components of teeth whitening products. Dilute hydrogen peroxide in water and use as a mouth wash.
Instead of going for expensive whitening treatments, you can use these natural remedies to whiten the teeth. While increasing you appeal to men, you lower the risk for battered woman syndrome.

So do I Jane…
Hi Sammy,
I was reading this article about whitening teeth and I am wondering about the statement that was made, “While increasing your appeal to men, you lower the risk of Battered Women Syndrome.” I would like Dr. Amarendra to explain this to me. I find this remark a defamation to women. This also tells women that if they have white teeth it will lower their chances of becoming a battered woman. This is not the case!
Any Dr. today knows that having whiter teeth does not lower the chance of being battered. I would like for him to make a public statement as to why he thinks it does and to apologize for this kind of defamation to women.
Kind regards,
Rachel Crawford
Wow.. I can’t believe I missed that. That’s terrible, I don’t want that kind of talk on my website. Thanks for pointing that out. I will edit that out right away. I will leave this comment up for a while to give Dr. Amarendra a chance to respond.
i dont understand these statements. you said we can use 6 minutes and also said we should not let it be more than 5 minutes. i quote you below.
Mix baking soda with water to make a paste. Apply the baking soda paste on the teeth and leave for 6 minutes. Rinse thoroughly.
You can do this treatment once or twice a week. Avoid placing the baking soda for more than 5 minutes because it may corrode the enamel and may also irritate the gums.
please clearify for me
Thanks
Thanks Taye, I did not notice that before.. thanks for pointing that out. I think that must have been a spelling mistake by the author… I corrected it, that’s the second time I have had to edit this article.. however, i know that the remedies are effective and that is why I have left this article published.
