One frequently asked question is: how do I get whiter teeth?
It is important to know that no one naturally has snow-white teeth; there is
always a yellow glow over them to a greater or lesser extent. Yet the Hollywood
smile remains an ideal of beauty. That's why we share our most important tips
to get whiter teeth naturally.
Tip 1: Brush, brush, brush
Brushing well twice a day is an important way to prevent
your teeth from becoming more yellow. To get whiter teeth, it is not only
important to brush for two minutes twice a day but also to brush correctly. You
do this by using an electric toothbrush and making a circular movement from the
gums to the tooth.
Tip 2: Be careful with coffee, tea and red wine
Food can cause the color of your teeth to be affected. Therefore,
do not drink too much coffee, black tea and red wine. Foods with artificial
colors, such as candy, can also affect the teeth. Use these foods in
moderation.
Tip 3: Quit smoking
Smoking is bad for your teeth for several reasons. You can
get inflammation in your mouth, which increases the risk of oral cancer, but it
also makes your teeth yellow or even brownish. Smoke deposits get on your teeth
and are then very difficult to remove. Therefore, stop smoking if you do this.
Tip 4: Have your teeth professionally cleaned
We advise everyone to have tooth cleaning and
filling by a dental hygienist twice a year. This removes plaque and
tartar in places that are difficult to reach. In addition, it is also important
to visit the dentist twice a year for a check-up.
Tip 5: Handy tricks
How white your teeth look is often an optical illusion. For
example, the teeth of someone with very light skin will quickly look more
yellow than if you are tanned. In addition, cool red lipstick can make the
teeth appear whiter, while orange-red lipstick can make the teeth appear more
yellow.
Tip 6: Bleach
If these tips give insufficient results, permanent teeth
whitening is the only solution that gives quick and good results.
Always have this done at a dental clinic rather than by someone who has not
studied for this. Also, don't get started with self-bleaching materials. These
usually do not make the teeth much whiter, but they do affect the tooth enamel.
