Of course, brushing and flossing are the first steps to maintain clean and healthy smile in the comfort of your home. However, you may have additional methods for keeping your pearly whites shiny, and they\u2019ll probably improve your diet in the process! Read on to learn four foods that can naturally brighten your teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Food #1: Strawberries<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Though strawberries are dark red (and able to stain your clothes), they\u2019re also great at whitening your smile! This is due to them containing an enzyme known as malic acid, which is efficient at removing stubborn stains. Simply mash up some strawberries and rub them on your teeth. After leaving them on for five minutes, rinse and clean your teeth like normal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Food #2: Apples<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Apples are one of the crunchiest fruits out there, making them a perfect cleaning tool for your pearly whites. By munching on them, they can provide a natural scrubbing action while also washing away particles between and around your teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Food #3: Celery<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Much like carrots, celery offer a low calorie and nutrient-rich snack. They\u2019re also clean and chewy foods that benefit your gum tissue health as well as keep your teeth white! Not only do they help scrub your smile, but they can increase your saliva production\u2014the essential agent to wash away bacteria from your mouth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Food #4: Cheese<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Along with yogurt, milk, and other dairy products, cheese contains lactic acid\u2014a component that helps protect against tooth decay. This is also due to being calcium-rich, which strengthens the enamel of your teeth as well as whitens them. Additionally, cheese effectively stimulates saliva flow and removes food particles or debris.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Try incorporating these few foods in your daily diet to maintain a shiny smile! In combination with a proper dental hygiene, you\u2019ll be sure to enjoy bright teeth on a daily basis. And if you ever feel like the results are beginning to fade, you can always visit your dentist for a professional touch-up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Author<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Barry R.
