How to make a homemade natural teeth whitener

Things you will need:

• Turmeric powder
• Baking soda
• Coconut oil
• A bowl
• A mixing spoon
• Measuring spoons
• A jar or container for storing the recipe

Steps

1. Measure 4 tablespoons of dried, organic turmeric root powder into a bowl.

2. Add 2 teaspoons of baking soda.

3. Add 2½ to 3 tablespoons of organic, virgin coconut oil.

4. Mix it thoroughly with a spoon or fork.

Your homemade natural teeth whitener is ready now.

How to use

1. Spread 2 teaspoons of your turmeric teeth whitener on your toothbrush.
2. Gently brush your teeth for 1 to 2 minutes.
3. Swish 1 teaspoon of melted coconut oil in your mouth for another minute, then spit it out.
4. Rinse your mouth with water.
5. Do this several times a week for a couple of weeks, then reduce the frequency to once or twice a week.

This mixture may stain the skin around the mouth, so be careful when brushing your teeth with it. To remove any yellow turmeric stains from your skin, apply milk for about 5 minutes and then wash it off.

Tips

• Store the remaining mixture in the refrigerator for a few days.
• If you want to make a smaller amount, reduce the quantity of ingredients proportionately.
• As using this mixture is likely to stain your toothbrush bright orange, keep a separate soft- to medium-bristled toothbrush to use with this natural teeth whitener.
• In addition to using this whitening paste, make sure to maintain adequate oral hygiene. You can also try oil pulling with coconut oil for oral health.
