#1 Water PicksYou will never floss effectively if you don’t have a water pick. This device helps you floss areas that are difficult to clean. You keep your teeth enamel healthy by killing bacteria deep within the teeth and gum. Water picks are great for those who have gum diseases, braces, or impacted wisdom teeth. Your gum will feel so fresh after every use. I wish I found out about this device earlier. After using it for one month, I have already seen a noticeable change in color.

#2 Drinking StrawsOne of the most obvious ways of keeping your teeth nice and white is to use a straw. Research shows popular drinks such as coffee and tea may cause stains on your teeth. If you can’t give up on these drinks, you can always use a straw so there is less contact between the teeth and the liquid. As a coffee addict, I tend to always get ice coffee so I can drink it with a straw.

#3 Baking SodaOne common method of whitening your teeth is to apply baking soda. Some medical professionals suggest that this is probably the most effective and least dangerous way of whitening your teeth at home because baking soda only contains neutralizing agents. To use baking soda, you can apply some on your toothpaste and give your teeth a nice brushing. You may start seeing a difference in teeth color in just one week!

#4 Whitening StripsI was always skeptical about using these products. I didn’t think it was possible for teeth to turn white by just applying some strips on it. Well, after using it for a month, my teeth color actually changed! Do note that this should not be used a long term solution. Once you stop applying the strips, the color will gradually wear off.

#5 StrawberriesI was surprised when I first heard about strawberries as a teeth whitening solution. I have yet to try but I don’t see any danger in trying. Strawberries supposedly contain properties that helps with whitening your acid. Mash a few strawberries in a bowl and brush your teeth with the mixture. Rinse your teeth after immediately. It’s an odd solution but it is a natural home remedy for teeth whitening.
