Together, these ingredients form a simple paste or rinse that may help reduce yellowing without the sensitivity that often comes with peroxide-based products.
How to Make and Use This Natural Teeth Brightening Mix
Start with one teaspoon of freshly grated ginger, half a teaspoon of sea salt or Himalayan salt, and the juice of half a fresh lime.
In a small bowl, combine the grated ginger and salt. Squeeze in the lime juice and mix until you get a slightly thick paste. Let it sit for one minute to activate.
Dip a soft toothbrush into the mixture and gently brush your teeth for one to two minutes. Be careful not to scrub too hard. Let the mixture sit for another minute in your mouth before rinsing thoroughly with water.
Repeat this method two to three times a week, not daily, to avoid enamel wear from the acidity.
You can also use the same ingredients with a bit more lime juice to create a mouth rinse. Swish it gently for 30 seconds, then rinse with water.
