Thanks and I hope this Helped you guys!
just crush charcoal to make powder,add a bit on your tooth brush,its healthy,natural and it works for real,thats what kids in africa use if they don;t have tooth paste ,its PFM!:-**
Also anything sugary like honey, strawberries should not be used as well because although they may whiten, (I have not seen this but some on this board it worked for them) if you use this frequently you will develop cavities in the areas that you use it.
Finally, no lemons either as the acid is not good for the enamel. Be sure to ask your dentist or dental hygienist what remedies work if you want to go the natural route...as they always say, ask a professional.
but i am getting them off soon and after reading everything, i think the wash clothe with Extra virgin olive oil would work the best
no sugar=no cavities
no acid= no destruction of enamel
no chemicals= no cancer
plus, olive oil is good (to me
react and turn a brighter, whiter color when under a black light (purple looking color).

Make sure you don't swllow any peroxide, can lead to bad coughs. Read Label on peroxide container for precautions.
You will Definetely See Results within The first Time you try this.
excessive wine=no livers
smoking=bad breath teeth stains and CANCER
However, my son broke off a portion of his two front teeth so dental whitening, he could not do. I bought this Listerine Whitening for him. He uses it 1 to 2x a week (maintainence). But, if you want really great results do 2-4x a day until you get your desired results (then 1-2x a week to maintain).
STEPS:
1. Brush your teeth, normally.
2. Mouthwash normally (with Listerene Whitening).
3.get a very small dish and pour a little in the dish. Place your toothbrush in the Listerine and brushing on your teeth directly.
4. You will feel and SEE an immediate difference -:)
5. NOTE: this will not work with regular listerene. It MUST be the Listerene Whitening!
6. Hope it works for you, because we use it consistently.
7. He had braces for a very long time and he gets comments that he teeth are so pretty and clean they look fake. (he hates that comment. LOL)
*A kind smile looks amazing on everyone and brightens your entire face and emphasizes your eyes, so SMILE !
Cause Jesus
has anyone tried ketchup?
every 4 hours for two days :P
'home remedies' for whitening teeth! just get some proper tooth whitening stuff!!!!
But very good tip
Clorox? are you Effin kidding me? I'm not putting that sh*t in my mouth...
Charcoal?...that store bought stuff is infused with all kinds of harmful chemicals and LIGHTER FLUID..it's ok to cook with...but you're not supposed to eat it!..not to mention that charcoal is a rock...the reason it's whitening your teeth is cause you're basically just eroding the outer layers...
ketchup = sugar+preservatives+sugar+acids+sugar...no brainer here...DON'T USE
and didn't any of you do that experiment in school with baking soda and peroxide? I'm pretty sure that it ended with the bag exploding! this is why it's bad for your gums...chemical reaction that produces gasses...
how bout we all just try BRUSHING!...and FLOSSING...and using a good toothpaste (with a whitener) and a good mouth rinse...(things that are all natural are obviously better...while the alcohol in listerine keeps your mouth free of germs)...
BRUSH BRUSH BRUSH! If you must, try a whitener from the store...or just let the dentist do it! It's worth the mondo bucks to have brilliant movie star teeth if you want them that bad...
...jesus
Listerine, Arm & Hammer, Crest.... all still test on animals. Would you stick tubes and electrodes to your dog or cat to give you white teeth? If no, live with your aging teeth. If yes, go hang with Michael Vick. Cruelty is cruelty in my book.
I think the most sensible one is the olive oil one.
Thnx- a random person
Also to kelCEE, I sure wouldn't wanna meet you - hateful, discriminatory AND unable to use apostrophes at the correct time? I don't know how you can discriminate against dyslexic people when you don't have a problem but still can't speak the language! xx
Anyways, i was gonna try the peroxide and lemon juice test but after reading all the scary stuff i think THE BEST suggest is #54. However, the olive oil n baking soda sounds interesting too from #57.
Bushing regularly using a whitening toothpaste and flossing is the MOST natural and SAFEST way to have almost...almost pearly whites.
try every single one of these remedies and it will asnwer all of your problems.
and also, hydogen peroxide is very dangerous!!
Need replies urgently ! Thanks !
If you were to get the bleaching system, thats exactly what you would do with the gel, just enough to cover the front teeth & not gums.
Please please please don't use clorox bleach or the charcoal for BBQ. The bleach solution for teeth is specially made for going inside your mouth, the charcoal that people may be talking about is probably something you can find at a natural food store.
Most importantly, brush at least 3 times a day or after each meal, floss once (again, once) a day.
Hope things work out for you all.
What kind of potato. Should I use a King Edward? A Maris Piper? Or something more manageable like a Jersey Royal?
The "All Blue" potatoes work very nicely. Sweet Potatoes or Yams work well too.
Good luck!
Also, Just Plates, you should brush your teeth at least twice a day not just once a week...that is a little gross
I tried the baking soda and toothpaste mixture and put it on my teeth with aluminum foil. I only left it on for a half hour instead of an hour, but I still feel that it worked. The only problem I had was messing with the stupid foil and getting it on my teeth right. The toothpaste/ soda mixture didn\'t taste bad, and (in my opinion) had a cool foamy chemical reaction. My teeth feel really really clean, like I just went to the dentist. I only tried in once so far, but I think after a few weeks my teeth will be whiter.
Also, I believe the reason that my teeth aren\'t as white as I want them is because of not brushing like I was supposed to when I was younger. My permanent teeth had come in and I never flossed, and only brushed them for maybe 15 seconds. Luckly, I don\'t have any cavities or other problems, but I think parents should make sure that their kids are PROPERLY taking care of their teeth.
You'd use Baking Soda, or bicarbonate which is the same.
im getting with the baking soda & virgin olive oil and spread it on my teeth with a Q tip :D
bright smile to errrbody!
so do not underestimate the evil in "humans" who overdose on "good vs evil" television (u'r certainly no heroes). i don't have to tell u ppl do, in fact, idolize villains...
...evil = self hatred directed outwards. this is y 2nd and 3rd opinions are so valuable. ur common sense (which they think u lack) is all u need to evaluate more than 1/2 of these responses...just watch urselves. good luck, evan (doing God's work)
I use gold fish waste mixed with juice from capers and add flour for a binder. Make a paste out of it adn scrub lightly. You teeth will be amazingly white but smell horrible. Then gargle with garlic juice to remove bad rotter fish crap smell. Duuhh use tooth paste!
It whitens your teeth in 15 minutes of rubbing. Leaves a dark brown color on your gums for 1-2 days.
People will notice your smile for sure.
