Getting a whiter smile doesn’t have to cost a fortune or involve any potentially harmful chemicals. You can achieve great teeth-whitening results from home with several different natural methods. If you’re looking for an all-natural alternative to chemical teeth whitening, try some of our tips below for a sparkling smile!

Brush With Baking Soda 
Baking soda is known for having natural whitening properties and has many cleaning uses. It is suitable to use on your teeth as well as around the house. It works as a mild abrasive, which helps eliminate surface stains on your teeth. It also creates an alkaline environment in your mouth that prevents any bacteria from growing.

Activated Charcoal 
Similar to how you would use baking soda, activated charcoal products are great for pulling toxins from the mouth and removing stubborn stains. You can get many different natural teeth whitening products containing activated charcoal ranging from powders to toothpaste.

Up Your Calcium Intake 
Calcium is essential in your diet for helping to keep your bones and teeth strong and healthy. If you don’t have enough calcium, your teeth can become weak, and your enamel can erode, resulting in the dentin being exposed underneath, also causing tooth discoloration. Either ensure you’re getting enough calcium in your diet or take supplements to help keep your teeth healthy, strong, and pearly white.

Drink With A Straw
One of the leading causes of teeth staining and discoloration is drinking and eating certain foods and beverages. Certain drinks such as coffee, wine, and dark berries are known for causing staining. Although it can be hard to avoid these altogether, try drinking out of a straw to limit contact with your teeth. This will help to protect your teeth and prevent staining. To make things environmentally friendly and always have a straw on hand, try these stainless steel ones you can easily carry around with you.
