Your Smile Can Become Brighter and Whiter

By Sandra Ng


We all would like our smiles to be as gorgeous and healthy as possible. Even though in our brains, we know that a bleached white smile isn't truly natural, we nevertheless like how it looks. The fact is that a white smile is absolutely prettier than one that has yellow undertones or is tarnished, etc. We have the tendency to judge each other based on the state of our oral health. Don't lie; you judge people for this also. This means, then, that you must be working on keeping your own smile as white as possible. The following are a few tips.

See to it that you are brushing your teeth twice a day for at least two minutes every time. A quick swipe in the morning and in the evening isn't enough. You should invest in one of the better electric toothbrushes in the market (like the Sonicare brush) and use it for a minimum of 30 seconds per quadrant of your mouth. This guarantees that you are actually brushing the front the back and the tops of the teeth and your gums as well. Furthermore, it helps ensure that you get more than simply the top layer of gunk off of your teeth.

There truly is such a thing as excessive whitening of the teeth. These days almost all toothpastes have a whitener built into them. When you use these in addition to the trays and other bleaching agents out there you can really overdo it. You might even begin to see that your teeth are starting to look blue, particularly near the edges. This is a sure indication that it is time to stop the whitening for a while! You have to select a gentle whitener also. Harsh whiteners can erode the enamel on your teeth and cause more damage than they can help you. Your teeth might be whiter but they'll get more prone to cavities also. Look out!

In addition to the whiteness of your smile, you're also judged on how you breath smells. This is another way of saying that you need to expend effort into making your breath fresh like you do into whitening your teeth. The tongue is a fantastic spot for bacteria to settle and hide. This could make your breath awful, especially later on in the day. Purchase yourself a quality tongue scraper and then use it regularly. Make sure that you use it properly. Avoid overscraping; a couple of good swipes should be adequate. Next, use a good mouthwash so your mouth remains as clean and fresh smelling as possible for as long as possible.

Don't skip the flossing! Okay, let's repeat it: make sure you floss! Sure, flossing is awkward and annoying and oftentimes hurt. You nonetheless have to do it. These days there are all sorts of flossing aids that can help you get the job done more rapidly and easily (like the flossing sticks you'll find at the pharmacy) Flossing is essential since even the best mouthwashes and electric brushes are not able to go into the places that floss can go. Floss at least once daily to get rid of all of the gunk out from between your teeth and beneath the gum line. This will help your mouth stay as healthy as possible and, in turn, it stays white and healthy too.

Best wishes!
