There are many causes of tartar, but one of the main ones is poor oral hygiene in many people; this, combined with the consumption of salt-rich foods, is the ideal scenario for its formation. Today we’ll show you a recipe that can remove tartar and whiten your teeth naturally, without having to go to the dentist or spend a lot of money on expensive procedures.

What is tartar and why does it form on teeth?
Tartar is the accumulation of hardened bacterial plaque that forms on the teeth and can even reach under the gums, causing gum problems.

There are two main types of tartar:

Supragingival tartar: This is tartar found on the surface of the teeth and above the gums.
Subgingival tartar: This is tartar found below the gum line and can lead to the formation of periodontal pockets.

Daily Oral Hygiene
The most important thing is to ensure you maintain proper oral hygiene, which means you will need to respect the following points:
It is important to brush your teeth after every meal, using a medium-hard toothbrush and a quality toothpaste.

It’s recommended to floss at least once a day (yes, in addition to brushing your teeth).
Mouthwash can help eliminate bacteria that have settled in areas hard to reach with a toothbrush (although mouthwashes aren’t a substitute for brushing twice a day and flossing, they do help remove excess food debris from your teeth).

Using a dental irrigator helps clean even areas inaccessible to other systems, such as under the gums.
