How To Whiten Your Teeth

Are you tired of being the ugliest person in the room? Have you spent countless hours in the mirror, trying to find a way to see around the yellowed, stained, and gross looking teeth? Well, I have some good news for you. Today I am here to tell you about several different ways that you can whiten your teeth at home very easily. I am writing this blog because I feel that a lot of people struggle with keeping their teeth white and looking good, and I feel bad for people who don’t feel confident in their own smile. Well, luckily for all of you people out there who fall into this category, you have someone like me who can write this article for you.

Now, one of the things you need to remember is that these methods of whitening don’t work for everyone, and it is true that not all of these are backed by scientific evidence or research. The problem with trying to whiten your teeth at home using products made by different toothpaste companies is that it is always so expensive. I mean, you can be paying upwards of 30 dollars just for some simple whitening strips. Well, fortunately for you I have researched some different means of whitening teeth that won’t break the bank if you are on a budget. So without further ado, let’s jump into some ways that you can whiten your teeth at home.

The first thing to know about whitening your teeth at home is that it is never going to be a one and done situation. You often have to use these different teeth whitening methods over the course of a few weeks to really notice some results. I would advise that you give your teeth some time to really whiten when you are using these methods and that you trust the process. I will say that, in the event that you are not getting results that you want, you can have your teeth whitened at the dentist if you feel so inclined. The first product that I want to tell you about is called hydrogen peroxide. If you are not sure what that is, this stuff is basically a miracle in a bottle when it comes to your oral health. In fact, if you take a look at some of the active ingredients in most toothpastes and mouthwashes, you will find hydrogen peroxide making the list. This stuff has been used for centuries to whiten teeth as well as kill bacteria in the mouth. Killing the bacteria that lives in your mouth and your teeth is essential for preventing tooth decay as well as gum disease. You might as well do yourself a favor now and start doing your best to prevent gum disease and tooth decay, because these things can lead to serious problems later on in your life. 

Similar to the way that hydrogen peroxide works, you can also use a different at-home method of cleaning your teeth called oil pulling. Oil pulling doesn’t actually have a lot of research behind it and it is not proven to actually whiten your teeth, so take all of this with a grain of salt. Using coconut oil or sunflower oil, some people claim that their teeth have been greatly whitened by swishing around the oil in their mouth for 10 to 15 minutes.
