How to Remove Dental Plaque






Oral health is a very important issue for a person as it is part of his/her body health. When you try to keep your teeth healthy, you have to deal with plaque or calculus, which is usually yellow-colored. Generally, you should visit a dentist to have it removed, but you can also remove it at home by using one of these methods.


Food coloring

Food coloring is an effective way of removing dental plaque. Apply some petroleum jelly on your lips for protection, then mix several drops of food coloring with a teaspoon of water. Brush it around your mouth, then rinse with water. Eventually, brush your teeth as usual.


Cheese

Old cheese, Cheddar, Swiss or fragrant, eaten before meals, prevents acids from producing the plaque.

Baking soda

Baking soda is a very popular ingredient used in dental care. You can either apply baking soda on your wet toothbrush and brush as usual, or mix it with some salt, for a better result. You can also prepare a mouthwash by combining ½ cup of baking soda with 1 cup of water, 4 tsp of vegetable glycerin, 10 drops of essential oil and 1 tsp of Aloe Vera gel. Use the mixture once or twice every day.

Strawberries and tomatoes

Both ingredients are rich in vitamin C, which maintains the health of your mouth by removing plaque and tartar. You can simply rub the strawberries or tomatoes onto your teeth and leave them action for about 5 minutes. Clear your mouth with baking soda and warm water in order to remove stains from your teeth.
