lifestyle guide to whiter teeth

Did you ever wonder whether there was any other way to whiten your teeth, other than blowing hundreds at your local dentist? Don't worry many of us have at some point or another. The important thing is that there are a lot of alternatives for brighter smiles other than the big bad bleaching agent. There are dozens of ways you can make your teeth whiter, in the comfort of your own home. A few ways include:

Watching Your Diet
  Watch what you eat and drink. There are so many drinks high in caffeine that cause stains on your teeth. These are beverages such as coffee, tea, soda, and wine. You should definitely get rid of soda for your own good. There is no benefit from drinking soda other than feeling better temporarily .This sugar water destroys your teeth and makes them weaker. Drink water instead and if you feel like water is boring, add some lime or lemon to it. This will allow you clear your stains from your enamel as well.

Brushing and Flossing Regularly
        This is very important. It is crucial that you take proper care of your teeth. Brush them after every meal, or at least twice a day. Make sure to floss often . Flossing is essential because it allows you to remove debris lodged between your teeth that cause gum disease,cavities,and a whole plethora of other problems.

Bad Habits Be Gone
       Your habits, good, or bad directly affect your dental health. An extremely bad habit for some, is smoking. A large majority of smokers have yellow teeth,which is not attractive.
. If you want to have a smile like sunshine without the horrid yellow color, just get rid of this bad habit and you will see a world of difference.You'll look better, and your self confidence will skyrocket!
