Despite its uninviting name, powdered charcoal is an excellent way to whiten teeth easily and inexpensively. Obtained from the carbonization of certain varieties of poplar, it is completely edible and should not make you fear its hygienic use.
Use it in one of the following ways:
- Add it directly to your toothpaste when brushing your teeth.
- Pour a little powder into a cup. Soak a cotton swab in water then take some powdered charcoal. Then apply to your teeth, rubbing them one after the other. Then rinse your mouth.
The whitening effects will be noticed quickly. When your teeth have reached the color you desire, you will only need to apply this remedy once or twice a week.
