I am a coffee addict- I gave up smoking, I don’t drink sodas, or teas, very rare I drink red wine, but I can’t give up coffee…even for the price I am paying since having yellow teeth because of that. What are good home remedies for whitening teeth?
I heard that rubbing teeth with vitamin C capsules whitens teeth? True? |

I heard that rubbing fresh spinach leaves helps whiten teeth… this is I guess the most practical home remedy I heard of for teeth whitening, except quiting on coffee
Also, numerous homewhitening kits, appointment at the dentist’s…
Washing teeth at least twice a day, after breakfast and before bed time, flossing, and chewing teeth-whitening gums.
I would like to say that Vitamin C will damage teeth quicker than anything else. So, don’t try to brush with lemon juice or vitamin C capsules.. It will make your teeth whiter at first because it will break down the composition of your teeth...first the stained layer, then the regular layers of enamel, which will cause increased sensitivity to hot and cold drinks and foods. |

less coffee or teas (green, black teas)- you can still drink herbal teas (they do not color teeth); less soft drinks with colorations, less wine, esp. red wine.
Best for white teeth- diary product, like milk, cheese, ...; meat does not interfere with teeth coloration; for drinking- water or NATURAL juices.
AVOID SMOKING!
If you brush your teeth as regular as you should, you shouldn't have big problems, even though drinking coffee or wine, but as long as you brush them... |

| teeth may be discolored due to various reasons, such as, chewing betel or tobacco, certain drugs like tetracycline, or poor oral hygiene. Mango leaves is used for brushing in rural India and is very effective in removing stains, plaque and other dental ailments.For more mamaherb.com/Treatments/List.aspx?filterByOption=SpecificConditionFamily&specificConditionFamilyId=255&specificConditionId=490&id=0&sortBy=Last%20Added]natural treatment[/url] you can go at herbs based site. |
