Another way is if you don't have the bleaching solution you can actually use hydrogen peroxide. What you would need to do is you just dip your toothbrush in the hydrogen peroxide, brush your teeth with it for at least one to two minutes and then rinse your mouth out with a good, a lot of water. Or a second option is you can use baking soda and water.

Obviously you definitely want to make sure you rinse out your mouth with warm salt water or actually cold water, either way to make sure you get all the excess of the baking soda out.
