So are you interested in knowing if apple cider vinegar can whiten your teeth?
Well my name is Michelle and I’m a dental assistant with Solutionz and I’m here to let you know that, yes, it is uh… it’s an actual natural form of whitening your teeth.
Basically what you would need to do is you just get some apple cider vinegar. Pour it in a cup, place it in your mouth and you just swish around with it. You don’t have to really brush your teeth with it, just basically gargle with it.
Swish around for a good one to two minutes and spit it out. And then rinse your mouth out with water… I’m sure… because the taste will be very nasty.
But definitely it does. The reason it … what the main ingredient is the acid that’s in apple cider vinegar will actually eat away at the stains of your teeth. And then in return you know once when you rinse your mouth out with water then you’re flushing it out replenishing the moisture and the nutrients back into where the acid ate away at the stains.
And it would eventually over a period of time definitely give you that nice little bright white smile that you’re looking to achieve. So once again, yes, apple cider vinegar is a way of bleaching your teeth at home.
And my name is Michelle and I’m a dental assistant with Solutionz and hopefully I just gave you a quick little tip on how you can whiten your teeth.

The grit that is used when your teeth are cleaned at the
dentist is much more harmful to the enamel.
