Question: What other common household agents can I use to clean my gums.? .?

I live in Europe where dentistry is expensive, I will not have dental coverage for at least a year. I used to use baking powder and hydrogen peroxide as a paste to clean my gums in the US, but they are also not available. Can I use baking powder on my teeth.? Salt.? Any other suggestions are welcome. Yes, I brush and floss regularly. Health Question & Answer

JENNIFER,
As someone wrote eating an apple is very good for your teeth. it contains cellulose to help remove plaque, and more importantly peroxide, which is why apples turn brown when exposed to air.
Flossing is a key to help prevent cavities between teeth and keep the gums pink and firm too.Health Question & Answer

if you floss and brush twice a day you should be fine for another year. The only thing I'd recommend is flossing and brushing after each meal (I'm afraid that soda is too abrasive for the gums and teeth)Health Question & Answer

I suggest to eat an apple after brushing & before going to sleep. This helps too much in keeping your teeth clean and strengthening your gum..

And remember: "If the doctor is kept away, you must eat an apple a day".Health Question & Answer

For a serious note. Yeah baking soda or powder will help you clean your teeth. also swish your teeth with vinegar.Health Question & Answer
