Clean stains off your teeth naturally by eating the right foods.

There are many home remedies that can be used to whiten teeth. Use foods that you already have in your home to prevent stains on your teeth from forming and remove the stains that are already there.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    DRINK QUICKLY - Drink teeth staining beverages quickly. Drinks such as coffee, tea and dark juices such as cranberry should be consumed quickly. Sipping on these drinks all day long equates to continual staining of the teeth. Prevent stains from building up by refraining from drinking these drinks or by consuming them quickly.

  2. Step 2

    MALIC ACID - Eat foods that contain malic acid to naturally remove stains from your yellow teeth. Foods such as strawberries, apples, or grapes are high in malic acid and therefore naturally clean stains off of teeth.

  3. Step 3

    RAISINS - Eat plenty of raisins. Raisins have natural properties that keep tarter from building up on teeth and prevent cavities. Keep raisins in your car or bag just in case you need to refresh your mouth during the day.

    You can use a home remedy that you already have in your home to whiten your teeth.
