Home Remedies For Dental Stains

By Harry Izzo


Do you cover your mouth to hide your smile even after hearing a hilarious joke? Then you might want to find a remedy for your stained teeth. If you go to a dentist he can have them removed in a few short minutes. A dentist is fully equipped with the latest cleansing gels to take care of your problems. If you go the home remedy route then be prepared for the long-haul.

Stains on your teeth are a sign that you either smoke a lot or you are not cleaning your teeth as well as you should. Or it's a combination of the two. If you brush your teeth at a minimum of twice a day you still can have smoking stains. Look at smoking as something you should treat, exactly like when you've had a meal. Soon after you put out your cigarette you showed brush your teeth. If this is not possible for you, then at least rinse them out with some water.

Eating fruit is good for smokers. Citrus fruit, especially, stimulates saliva production and saliva helps wash away this staining. You can ward off smoking stains by eating oranges and lemons whenever possible. So be sure to have a lot of them on hand. Citrus fruit is loaded with the vitamin C needed to prevent gingivitis.

Strawberries and apples also are invaluable. Biting down into an apple keeps the surface of your teeth looking white. Strawberries also can be helpful if you munch them into paste and brush your teeth with them. Afterwards be sure to use real toothpaste to finish the job.

Other homemade pastes are made from hydrogen peroxide and baking soda. Baking soda is a good alternative to toothpaste. The tiny grains in baking soda are abrasive and can rid your mouth of smoke stains. Just don't do it too vigorously, because you do not want to damage your tooth enamel.

Eating dairy is a good source of calcium. Calcium is important for strengthening bones. Teeth are bones and calcium helps to make them strong. To protect your teeth from smoke stains eat plenty of dairy products like milk and cheese.

These home remedies are not quick fixes unfortunately. They help remove stains over time especially for smokers. The best option is to quit smoking altogether. This will improve your smile and keep you living longer too.
