Those who cannot stay away from their daily dose of coffee or tea will benefit from using strawberries for teeth whitening. Since strawberries contain malic acid, they are a useful remedy for teeth staining that is a result of continuous coffee, tea, and red wine consumption. Try mashing two or three strawberries in a bowl and add a teaspoon of baking soda, then rub the mixture onto the teeth for five minutes. Using a small toothbrush (like those used by kids) to rub in the mixtureis even more efficient, as the bristles can easily get between the teeth. Rinse the mouth with plain water and floss any berry seeds that may be stuck. Just like apple cider vinegar, this remedy should be used sparingly as the acidic compounds in strawberries can corrode tooth enamel when used in excess.
