Here are five effective and safe recipes when used moderately and consistently:
1. Baking Soda and Lemon Juice
Baking soda gently removes surface stains, while lemon juice — rich in citric acid — provides a natural whitening effect.
How to use: Mix half a teaspoon of baking soda with a few drops of lemon juice, then brush your teeth gently for one minute only. Rinse well with water and use the mixture once a week to avoid enamel erosion.
2. Activated Charcoal
Activated charcoal is highly effective in removing plaque and yellow stains, giving your teeth a noticeable shine after a short period of use.
How to use: Wet your toothbrush, dip it into activated charcoal powder, and gently brush your teeth for two minutes before rinsing thoroughly. It is recommended to use it two to three times a week.
3. Coconut Oil
Coconut oil acts as a natural mouth cleanser that removes toxins and bacteria responsible for odor and yellowing.
How to use: Place one tablespoon of oil in your mouth and swish it around for 10–15 minutes. Discard the oil, then brush your teeth as usual. It can be used daily for best results.
4. Banana Peel Rub
Banana peel contains minerals like potassium and magnesium that naturally help polish teeth.
How to use: Rub the inside of the peel on your teeth for two minutes, leave it for five more minutes, then rinse. Repeat this three to four times a week.
5. Apple Cider Vinegar
Apple cider vinegar works as a natural mouth cleanser that kills bacteria and removes buildup.
How to use: Mix one tablespoon of apple cider vinegar with a cup of water, use it as a mouthwash for 30 seconds, then rinse with plain water. Use two to three times a week.
