Can I whiten my teeth with baking soda alone?
You may use baking soda type products like Toms of Maine. They are mildly abrasive and will not hurt your teeth. I might suggest that you mix the baking soda tooth paste with some hydrogen peroxide. However at the first sign of sore gum tissue I would discontinue the hydrogen peroxide. Really you should consult a dentist in person as well ; I usually find that people have other deficiencies in tooth shape and size that are aesthetically more important than the color. Perhaps a tailor made approach to your smile makeover may be indicated. READ MORE
