8 Simple Ways to Whiten Teeth at Home

Use Hydrogen Peroxide

Hydrogen peroxide acts as an antibacterial agent that rids the mouth of germs and bacteria and is used for both teeth whitening and cleaning. Mix half portions of hydrogen peroxide and water and swirl around the teeth and gums for a minute, then rinse thoroughly with plain water. Doing so a few times a week aids in both teeth whitening and the protection of gums. Hydrogen peroxide can also be mixed with baking soda and water and used to brush the teeth; this mix can eliminate both plaque and stains. For maximum effect, brush teeth with toothpaste as usual, then rub hydrogen peroxide and baking soda mixture on the surface of the teeth for thirty seconds, then rinse with water.
