Missing Muse

I have horrible stains on my teeth from years ago. Recently, I’ve started drinking coffee sometimes twice a day, though in the past I only had a cup once or twice a week. This has cause my teeth to get even more yellow. From experience, what has worked the best for you?

Crest Whitening Strips. if you think they are expensive then try some home remedies they are equally effective

1. Application of a paste of lemon juice and salt in the yellowish tint of the teeth is a wonderful way of eradicating that dull color of the teeth.

2. Rubbing the inner white part of an orange peel in the discolored teeth gives a lovely white shine.

I am away at college and I’m not able to see a dentist like i’m supposed to. Is there any advice on what products to use, or any techniques to keep up with to maintain a healthy mouth?

The best way to keep our teeth clean? Brush and floss.

I work in a dental office which, ironically, doesn’t provide dental insurance. I take care of my own teeth. I got a Sonic Care, they have a cheaper model now for under $40. The vibrations are KEY to keeping the plaque from building up. It really works, even makes my teeth whiter.

Watch your diet and make sure you aren’t guzzling soda, then hitting the hay. Best foods for your teeth are actually crunchy foods since they keep your teeth in top shape. No popcorn! They chip fillings and get lodged into the craziest places!

Smoking is bad, of course, but it’s awful for your teeth. I can tell by the look of a person’s teeth if they smoke. Plaque builds up terrible behind the front teeth. A guy whose been smoking for years…. oh my God! It’s like a battle. It’s so nasty!

just get a floss threader thingy and put the floss through there (looks like a blue loop) and put that between the braces when you floss

After brushing and flossing I used a disclosing tablet. I had pink between every tooth even though I had just flossed! I flossed again and chewed another disclosing tablet. I still had pink between my teeth. I floss exactly how the dentists says to but it does not seem to work. What can I do?

You may need to have your teeth cleaned, what is staining may not be plaque, but deposits that have to be scaled off by the hygienist or dentist….
After that, I bet, you won’t have the pink stain….but good for you, and using the disclosing tabs!!!

Few days back I had an accident and I hurt by jaw real bad. As a result I cannot fully open my mouth. I haven’t brushed since three days. Can anyone tell me how to keep my teeth clean without brushing? Are oral wash effective? Please suggest me products available in indian market.
Thank you everyone who answered here seriously.

A mouthwash containing Hydrogen Peroxide does an excellent job at removing debri from teeth. When I had braces on my teeth, I would use that, and it always removed an astonishing amount of stuff. It gets foamy, and has sort of a scrubbing action. A brand like Listerine Whitening pre-rinse works well (it’s what I happen to have right now).
If you can’t find anything like that, ordinary mouthwash, with about 4 drops of Hydrogen Peroxide, from the drug store (per one individual use, not the whole bottle) works very well (I’ve done it a lot), if not better. Hope you’ve seen a doctor or dentist about that jaw.

My doughter is four going to five in a month she has just grown her second pair on top of her bay teeth, what can I do is this a medical condition?

Your daughter is a little young to be getting her permanent teeth. Most kids get them around six.

Normally, when permanent teeth come in they push the baby teeth out. Are the baby pair loose? Can she wiggle them? If they are loose, encourage her to keep wiggling them until they come out.

My son had to have two baby molars removed by the dentist since they weren’t coming out and the permanent molars were coming in.

If she doesn’t loose the baby teeth naturally, you should take your daughter to a dentist. Her permanent teeth may grow in crooked so intervention at this time may save her from having braces later on.

I am not sure where or if i have ever heard of it. But for some reason i think i heard that dentist can tell if a child has been abused throught thier teeth.

And i dont mean punched out teeth. Just from position and how crooked they are.

Anyone hear about this????

Not necessarily from the teeth themselves but there are signs of abuse which can be recognized within the oral cavity, and any dental professional who suspects abuse is obligated to report it.

I am a chocolate lover especially Snickers, Teasers, Toblerone.. well, chocolates with nuts.

I have healthy teeth and I regularly have check up with my dentist, but it makes me wonder if it’s okay to eat chocolates then brush teeth right after?

its a good idea.May be you will have good teeth but you can land up as a diabetic.

can you brush your dogs teeth will human tooth brush and human
tooth paste? ( for the tooth paste, it isnt minty.. its the sweet kids kind..)
thank you!! im glad i asked, cause i was about to do it!!!

No you can’t…only if you can rinse out their mouth really really good which is not going to happen…lol
You can get pet tooth paste and brush for under $5 at any pet store.

I was wondering what products are the best for teeth whitening?

First, what is a good whitening toothpaste?

Second, what is a good product to use for teeth whitening that doesn’t leave my teeth extremely sensitive? I have heard from multiple people that a lot of the whitening strips leave your teeth very sensitive. Anyone have any experience with a whitening product that does not leave you with extremely sensitive teeth after?

Teeth whitening is commonly accomplished by applying a bleaching agent to the teeth. The longer the bleaching agent is applied the better it works. Or at least this is how every teeth whitening system is marketed.
