Obtain a movie-star smile without spending a fortune

Teeth are a major priority when it comes to beauty and sometimes the first thing a person notices when they look at your face. All of us desire a glistening movie start smile. After all, nothing says gross more than a stained set of yellow and brown teeth. I understand that professional teeth whitening can be very costly which is exactly why I want to share with you some easy at home remedies to get your teeth glistening white in no time.

• Baking Soda- not something you imagine putting in your mouth, but once you see it's beautifying magic, you'll make sure to keep in on the grocery list.
  

1. Mix about one tablespoon of baking soda with a little less than one tablespoon of water in a small Dixie cup, dip the tip of your toothbrush in the solution and lightly brush your teeth.
   
2. Make sure to spit out all the baking soda and rinse your mouth thoroughly with water.
   
3. Follow this procedure one to two times a week depending on how stained your teeth are. Make sure to give your teeth a rest period after three weeks of whitening.

• Hydrogen Peroxide- is actually used in professional teeth whitening. You can buy this liquid at any drug store for less than a dollar. There are two ways you can apply the peroxide for your teeth. If you have sensitive gum's then use the cotton ball method.
  

1. Cotton ball- brush your teeth as you normally do and then dip a cotton swab into the peroxide and gently rub it into your teeth. Try not to swallow any of the solution. Spit out what's left in your mouth and rinse a few times with water.
   
2. Swishing- brush your teeth as you normally do and then swish some of the hydrogen peroxide in your mouth for a minute. Spit it out and then rinse thoroughly. It's natural to feel a little bit of tingling.
   

• Stawberries- usually are more of pain then anything when it comes to our teeth. The littles seeds in strawberries can require a lot of flossing. Something many of us may not know is that strawberries contain natural teeth whitening agents.

1. Take a few strawberries and mash them into a paste using a fork or food processor.
2. Use a clean toothbrush or your finger to apply the paste to the teeth, to form a thick layer. Leave the paste on for three-five minutes.
3. Rinse off the strawberry paste thoroughly and make sure to rid any seeds. Brush your teeth using a fluoride toothpaste. It's important to use a fluoride toothpaste to handle any of the acid in the strawberries.

You have now created an at-home tooth whitening system that should cost you no more than five dollars. Now go out and flaunt that smile!
