What NOT to do
when you value your own teeth!
We have heard of many wild stories about ways to whiten your teeth. And not all of them are as safe to use as you might think
Home remedies for whitening teeth (what NOT to use)
Lemon (citrus fruit)
Do NOT use lemon juice or peel, or orange or any citrus fruit for that matter as a natural teeth whitening method. They contain citric acid which whitens your teeth alright because it solves calcium in your teeth; this calcium normally gives your teeth an off-white color
The big BUT is that calcium is also necessary to keep your teeth healthy and strong and when you lose it because of the citric acid your teeth become way more vulnerable to decay. In the long run the use of this acid can even totally dissolve your enamel...a definite NO NO
Strawberries
Another natural teeth whitening No No is using strawberries. Although they can be part of a healthy diet and they taste a bit better than lemons, for them we also have the same advice, do NOT use it as natural teeth whitening, and also for mostly the same reasons
