Natural Bleaching Agent: Strawberries

Strawberries are powerful teeth whiteners that contain both an astringent and vitamin C. The astringent in strawberries effectively aids in the removal of surface stains while vitamin C whitens teeth by clearing away plaque.

Natural Toothbrush: Apples

A crunchy apple acts like a toothbrush as you chew it. The process of chewing an apple removes excess food and bacteria from your mouth while scrubbing away surface stains. Apples also contain malic acid, a chemical used in teeth whitening products, which helps dissolve stains.

Natural Mouthwash: Raisins

Raisins help to keep your teeth white by inducing saliva production. An increased level of saliva naturally helps to rinse away plaque.

(ONCE A MONTH)

  • Baking Soda
  • Few drops of Hydrogen Peroxide 3% (except if you have metal fillings)
  • 2 drops Lemon Essential oil or 1/2 freshly squeezed lemon

Why

Lemon Essential Oil: Potent (Use diluted), fight infections, antimicrobial (kills/inhibits growth of micro-organisms – tiny one-celled organisms like bacteria, fungi and viruses), tooth whitener, but also the acid can erode tooth enamel so should not be used for more than 1 minute.
