Baking soda paste
Stains and yellowing on your teeth can be a major turn off. Try brushing with baking soda a few times a week and watch those unsightly stains disappear.

Use a straw
Some beverages like coffee, soda, tea, and even wine can stain the teeth. Use a straw to lessen your drink's contact with your teeth. Don't forget to go environmental-friendly.

Gargle Coconut Oil
Coconut oil is a natural oil that you can gargle in your mouth for around 15 minutes to break down plaque and it removes bacteria too.

Consult a professional
Professional teeth whitening uses powerful whitening agents that may work faster and more effectively than what's readily available in your home. A single trip to the dentist can guarantee you safe and effective ways to whiten teeth and can work better than using a ton of expensive teeth whiteners.
