Celebrate Wimbledon, whiten your teeth
[permalink]

In this shallow, superficial world that we live in, where everyone is forced to adhere to specific levels of beauty dictated by society; it is refreshing to learn that one can improve one's looks cheaply and manually, at home.

In today's lesson, we will show you how to whiten your teeth, the natural way. I found this method on the "internet" a couple months back, but I thought I would save it until now, just before Wimbledon - home to the much loved tradition of strawberries and cream.
 

A strawberry (Fragaria xananassa)
 

Ok, so here's how you do it.

You need:
1 ripe strawberry
1/2 teaspoon baking soda

Directions: Crush the strawberry to a pulp, then mix with the baking soda until blended. Use a soft toothbrush to spread the mixture onto your teeth. Leave on for 5 minutes, then brush thoroughly with toothpaste to remove the berry–baking soda mix. Rinse. (A little floss will help get rid of any strawberry seeds.) Apply once a week.

So there you have it.

Smile!
