This recipe combines the gentle exfoliating properties of baking soda with the natural enzymes in strawberries to help brighten your smile.
Ingredients:
- 1 fresh strawberry, mashed
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Instructions:
- Combine Ingredients: In a small bowl, thoroughly mix the mashed strawberry with the baking soda until you form a smooth paste.
- Apply to Teeth: Gently apply the paste to your teeth using a clean toothbrush.
- Brush Gently: Brush your teeth for 2-3 minutes, focusing on the areas where you want to whiten.
- Rinse Thoroughly: Rinse your mouth thoroughly with warm water.
- Frequency: Use this paste 1-2 times per week.
Important Notes:
- Sensitivity: If you have sensitive teeth, reduce the amount of baking soda or discontinue use if you experience any discomfort.
- Consistency: For best results, use this paste consistently for several weeks.
- Professional Cleaning: This recipe is a natural alternative to professional whitening treatments, but it may not produce the same dramatic results.
- Consult a Dentist: If you have concerns about your teeth or oral health, consult with a dentist before using any at-home whitening methods.
