The Power of Cloves and Ginger
The star ingredient in this recipe is cloves, renowned for their ability to soothe gum pain and toothaches while also whitening teeth. But don’t worry, we’ll need finely ground cloves for this recipe, which can easily be prepared in advance for everyday use. Simply take a tablespoon of finely ground cloves to start.
Next up is ginger, another powerhouse ingredient known for its dental benefits and ability to freshen breath. Add approximately a tablespoon of ginger to your cloves, and mix these dry ingredients together.
How to Create Your Teeth-Whitening Paste
Then, it’s time to add your favorite toothpaste – about a teaspoon or a medium-sized dollop will do. Finally, add a tablespoon of water and mix everything together until you have a paste-like consistency.
Voila! You’ve just whipped up your very own teeth-whitening paste. Transfer it into a container, seal it tightly, and incorporate it into your daily brushing routine. Use it just like regular toothpaste, brushing your teeth thoroughly in the morning and evening. Twice a day is plenty, but feel free to use it up to three times if you prefer.
