Brilio.net - White and clean teeth are often considered a sign of personal hygiene and good health for everyone. The appearance of bright and radiant teeth also makes your smile more attractive to the person you are talking to.
But what happens if there are some yellow teeth hidden in your smile? Maybe this makes a number of people who see it feel uncomfortable or even disgusted. Of course, you don't want this condition to happen to you, right?
This yellow tooth discoloration can occur due to several factors. One of them is food and drink that enters the body.
Consuming foods and drinks such as coffee, tea, and light-colored foods can cause discoloration of teeth. Natural and artificial coloring substances in food and drinks can stick to tooth enamel, causing stains that are difficult to remove.
Acidic foods and drinks, such as soda and citrus fruits, can erode tooth enamel. When the enamel is eroded, the yellower dentin located beneath the enamel becomes more visible.
Apart from that, yellow teeth can also occur due to smoking habits. Cigarettes contain nicotine and tar which can stick to teeth, causing yellow-brown stains. Long-term smoking habits will make these stains more difficult to remove.
Not only that, poor oral hygiene can also cause plaque buildup. This can later harden into tartar, making teeth appear yellow.
So that your smile becomes bright again with clean teeth free of yellow stains, you need to do extra treatment. Without going to scaling, you can get rid of yellow teeth just by using ingredients in the kitchen . This step is as shown by YouTuber with the YouTube channel @crasehari-hari6926.
By uploading a short video that lasts a few minutes, he appears to be using two kitchen ingredients, namely lemon juice and salt. Then combine with toothpaste. These two ingredients then have their respective benefits.
Reporting from onlymyhealth.com, Friday (17/5) lemons contain citric acid which has natural whitening properties. Citric acid can help remove stains from teeth by breaking down the compounds that cause stains.
However, there are several important things to pay attention to. First, the citric acid in lemons can be effective in whitening teeth with proper use and only used a few times.
The second thing you need to pay attention to is that the high acidity of lemon can erode tooth enamel if used too often or without dilution. Enamel is the main protective layer of teeth, and damage to it can cause teeth to become sensitive and more susceptible to damage and decay.
Meanwhile, salt has mild abrasive properties which can help remove stains on the surface of teeth. In addition, salt has antibacterial properties which can help maintain oral hygiene.
Like lemon juice, using too much or too much salt can damage tooth enamel. Therefore, use just enough salt and don't use too much salt when brushing. This is done to avoid irritation of the gums.
The acid content helps eliminate bad breath.
The benefits of lemon are not only for removing yellow stains from teeth, but also for treating bad breath. This is because lemon contains citric acid which stimulates saliva. Reporting from onlymyhealth, the citric acid content helps clean food particles and bacteria that cause bad breath.
These are a number of benefits that you can use to get rid of yellow teeth. So how do you make DNA using the ingredients above? For those of you who want to try, let's look at the information below as briliobeauty.net summarizes on the YouTube channel @crasehari-hari6926, Friday (17/5).
