India is a big country and we have lot of population living in rural parts of the country! There people use many things apart from toothpaste to clean their teeth.The commonly used things are tooth powder, Fire Ash, the Thin sticks of neem tree made us make shift brush. They have fantastic and healthy teeth than many of Urban people as these things have scientific principles behind them in cleaning the teeth like ash acts as a good adsorbent agent and Neem is a good antiseptic agent! Do you some other things used for cleaning the teeth apart from tooth paste? Please respond! Thanks !
I use toothbrush and toothpaste to clean my teeth and then I also use dental floss but not all the time for I know it is not also good to use it everyday and I conclude my brushing ritual with a mouthwash to feel really cool. I am very meticulous when it comes to cleaning my teeth because I considered my smile and my teeth as my asset and I don't want my teeth to get all tarred!
Ive tried to use a salt instead of toothpaste. Salt is good for whitening our teeth,because of sodium content. Aside from salt, Ive heard from my grandmother that an ashes is good to remove tartar,but not yet tried to use it.
Well, when I was younger, I tried using salt to make my teeth whiter. But the taste is awful and it can damage your gum. Better be contented with toothpaste and mouthwash as they are safer.
No I dont use anything else than toothpaste but I want to use other toothpase which is not done by brush because my mass above and below my teeth are destroyed by brush.
I use mouthwash though I brush my teeth using toothpaste. I can recall that in year 2009 i use pocket mints the thin squared mint that melts in mouth quickly.
Well I use salt sometimes especially when I'm sick. But even though I use it I still brush my teeth with toothpaste afterwards. I also use hydrogen peroxide as my dentist said it could temporarily whiten the tooth.
