Foods To Eat For Naturally Whiter Teeth
1. Strawberries

If you love strawberries, you’ve probably got whiter teeth than most people. That’s because, strawberries possess malic acid, a natural ingredient that helps to brighten teeth.

In fact, malic acid is often found in anti-aging creams to help hydrate, remove dead skin cells and reduce wrinkles.

Cheese contains casein, a milk protein that helps to replenish minerals in tooth enamel to keep it stronger and whiter too.

Crunchy fruits like apples and pears require loads of chewing that helps to increase salivation production in your mouth. Saliva acts as a natural cleansing agent to keep your mouth free from bacteria.

Not only does drinking water help prevent bad breath, it also helps to keep your teeth whiter.

Water keeps your mouth moist enough so that bacteria doesn’t thrive and increases saliva production too.

Seeds are naturally hard and abrasive, keeping plaque and stains from sticking onto your teeth.

8. Yoghurt

The proteins and calcium in yoghurt help to strengthen teeth so they don’t get as brittle and as susceptible to decay, damage and bacteria.

9. Omega 3 Fatty Acid Fish

Fish high in omega 3 fatty acids can help to reduce inflammation causes by gum diseases and eventually protect against it.

Another way to prevent gum disease is through regular flossing to rid teeth of food particles and prevent bacteria from breeding.
