From being unable to resist eating even later on brushing my teeth at dark, to skipping tonight dental-care ritual altogether owing to laziness, to my undying dearest for coffee—there are too many reasons that simply turned my smile into a full-fledged frown—all thanks to my one time-vivid-as-light-super-white teeth to become yellow, xanthous-dirty boyfriend!
In fact, this change in the colour of my teeth seemed more drastic than that of change in colours in a chameleon and merely drove me to the point, where I was set to spend big bucks on a professional person teeth-whitening/bleaching treatment.
Everything was set: The fourth dimension, the date, and the finances—but mom wasn't. Blame information technology on her kanjoosi or her unshakable confidence in her sasti-tikau and side-effects-complimentary home remedies.

Perhaps, information technology was this rubbish advert's influence that made my mom disrespect my privacy in the wee hours of the morning, with a teaspoon of common salt in her hands.
Nope, the commercial couldn't convince her to actually spend money on the holy "toothpaste with namak", only it did remind her of the age-onetime abode remedy of brushing your teeth with salt in social club to whiten and brighten them.
Was it worth the problem?
If someone would've asked me this even inside the offset week of brushing my teeth with salt once a solar day post brushing my teeth with my "unsalted" toothpaste every morning, I would have still given this 1 a thumbs up. Because yous know what? It actually works.
Also lookout man:
As days went by, the plaque and the yellowness went away and so did the weird stains on my teeth hither and there.
P.South. The "salty" communication has scientific discipline'due south sweet support

No points for guessing, without germs your teeth are just going to shine brilliant like a diamond.
Additionally, the salt's grainy, abrasive texture tin fifty-fifty deed as a "scrub" for your teeth and rid them of the deposited plaque and germs and thus, turning them white from yellow.

Merely, you've got to remember non to go overboard and finish upwards eroding the precious top layer (enamel) of your teeth.
