What you can do is use a straw without letting it touching your teeth. Just don't place the straw were your teeth are. Try to place it at the back of your mouth.
What do you think? Answer below!
the less the better...but I would stick with clear pops like spirit, 7up, sierra mist, etc b/c the dyes in dark color pop is what stains your teeth. brushing your teeth twice a day and flossing will also help keep your teeth white...I would recommend buying a toothpaste that advertises "whitening" or buy a specialty toothpaste for that exact purpose.
ReplyDeleteI don't think it really matters how many sodas you drink, if you drink them through a straw then you should be fine...and yea brushing would definately help
ReplyDeleteEverything should be done in moderation, i think once a day might be a bit much and yeah brushing your teeth after you drink would definitely help. Also drink it through a straw it avoids the contact of soda with your teeth.
ReplyDeleteWell yes i guess a straw would help but also drinking more that one a day is bad. I only drink maybe once a week. I have been doing that for years and I don't have yellow teeth. You don't need to brush your teeth right after unless you are a person who is afraid about your teeth doing something bad. Also you could try to (after you are done drinking the soda) wash it down with some ice cold water. The water would disinfect the junk that is still stuck to your teeth. And one more thing the color of the soda doesn't matter. Any color of soda has the capability of making your teeth yellow. But don't be too worried about that because it takes years and years and years of soda, sugary things, etc. to make your teeth yellow. So enjoy the soda for now!
ReplyDeleteSelecting the right toothbrush (and using it properly) is perhaps the most important part of your dental care routine. When looking for teeth whitening products many people forget that the humble toothbrush is perhaps the most important weapon in your arsenal against yellow teeth.
ReplyDeleteChoosing The Right Toothbrush
Whilst you have a range of colors to choose from, whether you have a pink or a blue toothbrush isn't going to make much difference when it comes to how white you can get your teeth. The key things to look for in your toothbrush selection are head size, bristle stiffness and shape. Mostly this comes down to personal preference with a bit of trial and error but also consider the size of your mouth relative to the size of the head of the toothbrush, the shape of the head relative to the layout of your teeth and the stiffness of the bristles relative to the sensitivity of your teeth and gums. It is also good to get a toothbrush that feels comfortable in your hands and that you can grip on to well to control your brushing.
Using your Toothbrush Correctly
You should brush for a minimum of two minutes at least twice per day. You should be firm but not forceful with your brushing stroke and many believe that circular movements are the best for even and through coverage. Make sure that your toothbrush allows you to reach all your teeth including those right at the back. Use a good quality toothpaste and you need to put an amount around the size of a pea on your toothbrush.
Storing your Toothbrush
You want to keep your toothbrush healthy and in good condition, in turn this will keep your mouth healthy and in good condition. Dry your toothbrush after use and store somewhere non-dusty and preferably away from your faucet in your bathroom. If you have a bathroom cabinet keep your toothbrush in there.
So with correct use a properly selected toothbrush really can be a great way to whiter teeth. People often neglect the simple things like brushing their teeth correctly and regularly whilst in search of quick fixes for their white teeth aspirations. Takes some time today to clean your teeth properly and feel the difference it makes.
