Use These 5 Tips in Maintaining Your Teeth White and Make You Smile Confidently

It is a must for us to keep our bodies healthy. When we said about our bodies, mouth care is also included as a part where we need to give attention to. Who wouldn’t want a whiter and brighter smile, right?

Some people might be forgetting about this. Apart from going to the dentist once in six months for regular teeth checkups, there are also other ways to make sure that our teeth are white without using expensive and painful options. Here are five tips that can help you to get the perfect smile.

1. Go for basic dental practices

Some of the basic dental practices that you have to do are twice-daily brushing, daily flossing, and mouthwash. These are considered as the most important steps in keeping your teeth white.

2. Consider the ingredients

In choosing tooth whitening products, look at the ingredients first to avoid experiencing sensitivity to the teeth. Look at the active ingredients such as peroxide. Choose products that have peroxide lower than 5%-6% to avoid sensitivity.

3. Choose the right toothpaste

You can consider using toothpaste with whitening. Usually, whitening toothpaste contains potassium nitrate which will help to improve the minerals in your teeth. If you have sensitive teeth, opt for sensitivity toothpaste with whitening.

4. Watch the drink

There are drinks that can stain your teeth such as coffee, soda, and black tea. Some other things can also affect your bright smiles such as eating curry, BBQ sauce, blueberries, and pomegranates. However, they won’t stain your teeth permanently. Make sure to rinse your mouth or brush your teeth right after having them.

5. You are what you eat

Various studies have proved some foods can actually reduce stains, improve dental health, and whiten your teeth. Some of the recommendations are apples, strawberries, nuts, dairy products, and vegetables. These foods have their own strengths in maintaining whiter teeth.
