Brilio.net - There are various dental and oral problems that can be quite detrimental to appearance, comfort, and even health. These include yellow teeth, tartar, dental plaque , dental caries, gingivitis , and even dental infections. However, among the various dental problems, the easiest to observe is the yellowing of the teeth along with the appearance of tartar.
As the name suggests, yellow teeth are a condition when the natural color of the teeth changes to become yellower. This condition is caused by various factors, such as the habit of drinking coffee or tea, being lazy about brushing your teeth, smoking, the effects of aging, consuming foods high in sugar and carbohydrates, and the buildup of plaque and tartar on the teeth.
Tartar is caused by plaque produced by food and drink that sticks to the surface of the teeth, making it a place for bacteria to grow. If left longer, the buildup of bacteria will damage tooth enamel tissue, leading to tooth decay.
Meanwhile, tartar is plaque that hardens on the teeth. It can even form under the gums and cause gum infections. This condition causes teeth to feel painful and bleed easily. Tartar on the teeth makes plaque free to develop and causes the surface to become stickier, thus triggering more serious diseases such as gingivitis.
Not only does it threaten your health, yellow, rusty teeth will also make you less confident. The reason is, it can make your breath smell bad and your teeth become more brittle. If you experience this, there's no need to worry. You just need to be diligent in brushing your teeth and taking proper care to deal with yellow and tartar teeth.
One of the treatments that is often done to treat this condition is using teeth bleaching products. It is indeed effective, but the chemicals in bleaching products are quite harsh, so they are prone to damaging tooth enamel. Another solution, you can use natural ingredients.
As shared by mothers via their personal TikTok account, @nur.indahsaleh. In the video, this content creator only uses 2 kitchen ingredients. The kitchen ingredients in question are lemon and salt.
Lemon content whitens yellow teeth and removes tartar.
Lemon has a very high acid content, so it can erode the bacteria that cause yellow teeth. The pH content in lemons is also able to maintain oral and dental health, you know.
Apart from that, the antibacterial content in it functions to kill bacteria and clean tartar naturally. Likewise, the acid content is effective in eroding plaque stains on the surface of the teeth.
The benefits of salt for treating yellow, tartar teeth.
Salt contains minerals, calcium, phosphorus and fluorine. All of these ingredients are considered capable of maintaining healthy teeth so that they are free from various problems. The most abundant mineral in salt is sodium chloride. Meanwhile, the calcium and phosphorus in it function to form bones and teeth. The fluorine content also plays a role in forming tooth enamel (the outermost layer of teeth).
Salt is a natural antiseptic that can eradicate bacteria. Salt works by increasing the pH balance in the mouth, so that it remains alkaline. This alkaline condition will prevent the growth of bacteria in the mouth. Salt can even release food particles and dirt between the teeth, which can cause plaque and tartar to appear.
With just these two kitchen ingredients, you can make teeth whitening paste which is claimed to be effective in whitening and preventing the formation of tartar.
