Having healthy teeth that look shining white is a blessing. Apart from being able to increase self-confidence, white teeth can also make your smile sweeter. Even someone who has white teeth is considered neater and better at taking care of themselves.
Unfortunately, not everyone has white teeth. Some of them actually experience yellowing of their teeth which is quite difficult to remove. The causes of yellow teeth are generally influenced by lack of oral hygiene and smoking habits.
On the other hand, yellow teeth are also caused by premature aging, side effects of drug use, certain medical conditions, and consuming certain foods or drinks that can worsen the condition.
However, you can overcome yellow teeth in various ways. Generally, many people overcome this condition by going to the dentist for treatment. However, this requires quite a bit of money to drain your wallet.
There is one solution that you can use to remove yellow stains, namely carrying out treatment using kitchen spices. This time what is used is turmeric powder and coconut oil.
This kitchen spice contains an active substance called curcumin, which is known to have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Curcumin can also help whiten teeth by removing stains and plaque that stick to teeth.
Meanwhile, coconut oil contains medium chain fatty acids (medium chain triglycerides or MCTs) which can help kill bacteria and reduce plaque formation on teeth. Coconut oil also has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties that can help maintain healthy teeth and gums.
So how do you use these ingredients? For this, you can copy the tricks shared by the TikTok account user @diybeautybykas as reported by briliobeauty.net , Tuesday (20/2).

Turmeric can also be a natural ingredient that can maintain overall oral health.
Not only is turmeric able to overcome yellow teeth, it can also be used as a natural ingredient that can maintain healthy teeth and mouth. The reason is that turmeric has anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. This was also proven through a study published in PubMed Central in 2012 which revealed that the curcumin in turmeric can help prevent gingivitis or gum disease.
Then, a study published in the Journal of Natural Science, Biology, and Medicine in 2013 found other benefits of turmeric for oral health, namely that it can relieve toothache and can be used in the treatment of periodontitis, and can help prevent various oral cancers.
The curcumin and anti-inflammatory content in turmeric can also treat acne problems on the face.
Reporting from Healthline, the benefits of turmeric for beauty are probably due to the bioactive component curcumin contained in it. Well, curcumin is what will help reduce redness on the face due to acne. Even the anti-inflammatory and antibacterial content in it is also effective in preventing irritation and killing bacteria that cause acne. With regular use, acne will quickly dry out and disappear.
Apart from that, the curcumin content in turmeric is also effective in fading acne scars. Along with its antioxidant content, curcumin is able to stimulate the formation of new skin cells, so that acne scars will quickly fade and skin will automatically become smooth.
