Tips for whiter teeth this summer
It’s that time of year again when the sun beckons and we all start to feel a little happier. This means our pearly whites will be on show more than ever. Whilst thinking of pulling out your summer wardrobe, why not take a few minutes to think about how you’ll keep your smile looking great too.
The usual daily hygiene routine of brushing your teeth is of course a must for keeping a healthy white smile. Sugar-free chewing gum can also be a real saver at summer events. Research shows that chewing sugar-free gum after eating or drinking can help to remove harmful acids in the mouth, while the increased saliva flow also helps to wash away food particles.
There are some drinks that are best to give a miss this summer. These include red wine and dark juices, which have the potential to darken the colour of your smile. Just remember: If the food or drink you’re about to put in your mouth is dark, it most likely has the potential to stain your teeth.
If you want to make sure that your teeth look their best this summer you could consider getting professional teeth whitening for a brighter smile.
There are home whitening or zoom whitening treatments to choose from, both of which have the potential to markedly improve the brightness of your smile. It is a quick, easy treatment that will instantly improve the appearance of your smile in preparation for the summer sunshine.
