Today, we will reveal the recipe of an effective, inexpensive, homemade mouthwash, based on baking soda, which will help you remove tartar and get a white and healthy smile.
Sodium bicarbonate is definitely one of the most potent best cleansers and it can be used in various ways, including for maintaining oral hygiene.
It has powerful bleaching and stains removal properties, so it is often used for teeth brushing. Also, it has antibacterial capacity that eliminates tartar and microbes which are the cause of cavities and bad breath.
To make your very own plaque-busting mouthwash, you must first gather together the necessary ingredients.
You will need:
- 1 tablespoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoons of salt
- ½ cup or (2 tablespoons) hydrogen peroxide
- 1 cup cold water
- ½ cup warm water
- Toothbrush
- Toothpicks
Directions
1. To get started, first combine both your salt and baking soda in a small container.
2. Run your toothbrush under some warm running water, and then swirl the bristles around in the baking soda-salt mixture.
3. Brush your teeth normally, and spit out the homemade paste when finished.
4. Now’s the time to move on to the best part—the mouthwash! This step is really simple. All you need to do is combine the ½ cup of hydrogen peroxide with the ½ cup of warm water and swish around in your mouth for about a minute or so.
5. To remove as much of that sticky tartar as possible, use a toothpick on the hard-to-reach areas and rinse the excess away with cold water.
6. You should repeat this procedure twice per week.
Note: If the paste feels too harsh for your teeth and gums, dilute the hydrogen peroxide with an equal amount of water before mixing it with baking soda.
Additional tips:
Remember that you should never swallow mouthwash, as it might contain harmful ingredients.
For optimal oral health, make sure you brush the teeth at least three times daily with good quality toothpaste.
Spicy food stimulates the work of salivary glands, and saliva naturally sanitizes the oral cavity.
