It\u2019s important to note that receiving teeth whitening treatment at our office isn\u2019t the only way you can whiten your teeth. There are ways you can whiten your teeth that you never thought possible. We\u2019re about to blow your mind\u2026hope you\u2019re ready! It\u2019s the best teeth whitening Sunnyvale residents can learn about!\r\n<!--more-->\r\n<h3>Teeth Whitening Treatment Away From The Office<\/h3>\r\nWhile we do offer whitening treatment, there are several steps you can take at home to whiten teeth naturally. Some of them are surprising, others aren\u2019t. At the end of the day, maintaining a strict dental hygiene regimen is very important and can help keep teeth looking white as can be. WATCH WHAT YOU\u2019RE EATING! Foods that are full of chemicals that can ruin your teeth including certain berries, sauces, and sweets. Certain beverages can also leave your mouth looking lackluster including red wine, coffee and tea.\r\n\r\nRise against these foods and beverages by practicing your own teeth whitening techniques. What are some possibilities?\r\n\r\nBehold:\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Snack on strawberries. These little delicacies contain an enzyme called malic acid and Vitamin C, which can help whiten your teeth. Surface stains are wiped away while the vitamin C sends plaque packing.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Floss regularly. We don\u2019t have to explain this one too much. You should already be flossing as part of your twice-daily dental regimen. If you aren\u2019t, we\u2019d highly advise starting now.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Crunchy fruits and veggies are your friend. The next time you\u2019re at the grocery store, pick up some apples, celery and carrots. Their crunchiness removes extra food and bacteria from the mouth while relieving the tooth\u2019s surface of stains. The acid inside each of them helps keep teeth whiter.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Need a drink? Use a straw. If you <em>have<\/em> to drink coffee or red wine, sip through a straw. This reduces the exposure your teeth have to these color-changing beverages.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h3>Need Help? We\u2019ll Answer Your Questions 1-on-1<\/h3>\r\nOur <a href=\"https:\/\/www.drgeorgetphilipdmd.com\/contact-us.html\">Sunnyvale, TX<\/a> office has teeth whitening treatment that could work wonders for your smile.
