Santana and Fraundorf offered seven tips on how to get your teeth whiter and brighter. 1. Develop an oral care routine Fraundorf recommended brushing at least twice a day with an electric toothbrush and using toothpaste with fluoride or nano-hydroxyapatite .
Tooth brushing with a correct brushing technique, employing a whitening dentifrice and using an electric toothbrush are effective resources to reduce tooth discoloration.' Fraundorf added that flossing with toothpaste, using a water flosser to remove plaque and using a tongue scraper daily to decrease bacteria can also promote whiter teeth. 2. Drink more water Water is 'the best thing you can drink to keep your teeth healthy and white,' according to Fraundorf.
