4. Vitamin C Boost and Orange Peel Scrub
Fruits rich in vitamin C, such as oranges, strawberries, and tomatoes, produce a delicate paste that can prevent the formation of plaque and rinse food. It’s also recommended to use the white part of the orange juice directly to preserve the natural antimicrobial properties of limonene and vitamin C.
Simple Vitamin Pasta:
-
Mash citrus fruits or fine strawberries to make a paste.
-
Apply to teeth for about 5 minutes .
-
Rinse and brush as normal.
If you use a gentle method, this does not replace regular brushing.
5. Chew sesame seeds or crunchy fibers
Chewing crunchy foods like sesame seeds, apples, carrots, or celery works like a natural toothbrush. The abrasion helps remove food debris and plaque between brushing sessions.
Tip: After chewing sesame seeds, use a wet toothbrush to remove loose plaque.
