How to Whiten Teeth Without Products

Few things convey youth and health more than a nice, white smile. While there are products on the market to help you regain whiter teeth, there are ways you can make them appear whiter that won't cost you a thing. Try these tips to whiten your teeth without products.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

1. Steer clear of beverages that stain your teeth, such as colas and red wine. You may also lessen their teeth staining properties by sipping these beverages through a straw.

2. Drink plenty of water, at least 8 glasses a day. Not only is this good for your health overall, but it will keep you from drinking other things that may stain your teeth.

3. Eat foods that are natural teeth cleaners, such as apples and celery. Some foods, such as broccoli and spinach, create a protective film on your teeth that helps them stay whiter.

4. Enhance the whiteness of your teeth through contrasting colors. The right shade of shirt for your coloring, a nice tan obtained through self-tanners or a dark red lipstick all have the ability to make your teeth appear whiter in contrast.

5. Stay away from tobacco products, which stain your teeth in addition to the other negative side effects of tobacco.

6. Practice good oral hygiene overall. Brush at least twice daily to remove tartar and plaque, and see your dentist for regular check-ups twice a year. Keeping your teeth and gums healthy will go a long way in whitening your teeth without products.
