Brilio.net - Teeth that appear yellow, rusty and have bad breath are common things experienced by most people. The discoloration of teeth usually occurs slowly and is sometimes unnoticed. Although basically the color of natural teeth is not pure white, but ivory white.
There are several factors that can cause discoloration of teeth, such as consuming coffee and tea too often. Not only that, an unhealthy lifestyle, such as nicotine in cigarettes, can also speed up teeth turning yellow. Meanwhile, there are other factors such as genetics, aging, use of drugs, and lack of maintaining dental hygiene which also cause teeth to turn yellow.
As quoted from the Healthline page, many factors cause teeth to become dull and lose their white shine. Certain foods can stain tooth enamel, which is the outer layer of teeth. Apart from that, plaque buildup on the teeth can also cause the teeth to appear yellow and rusty.
Plaque itself is food residue that sticks to the surface of the teeth with a sticky, yellowish texture. This plaque can also cause bad breath and the appearance of tartar. Usually this dental plaque appears due to rarely brushing your teeth, so that food residue sticks to the surface of the teeth.
You can overcome this condition of yellowing teeth in various ways. Starting from cleaning your teeth regularly, avoiding foods and drinks that have the potential to change the color of your teeth, to undergoing whitening treatment at the dentist. Whitening treatment is indeed effective for whitening teeth that appear yellow, but this treatment requires a lot of money.
No need to worry, because you can overcome this by using natural ingredients . As shared by a woman via her personal TikTok account @ginajeannetteofficial, who actually uses 2 types of fruit. The fruits in question are kiwi and cucumber. He also added another ingredient, namely baking soda.
