A quick home remedy for whitening teeth using ginger and salt is popular due to their natural cleansing properties. While this method may help remove surface stains, it’s not a substitute for professional whitening treatments. Here’s how to do it safely:

Ingredients

• 1 small piece of fresh ginger (grated)
• ½ teaspoon salt (preferably fine salt)
• ½ teaspoon baking soda (optional, for extra whitening)

2. Mix the Ingredients – In a small bowl, combine ginger, salt, and optional baking soda. Add a few drops of water or lemon juice to make a paste.
3. Apply to Teeth – Use a toothbrush or your finger to gently rub the mixture onto your teeth. Avoid scrubbing too hard to prevent enamel damage.
4. Let It Sit – Leave it on for about 1–2 minutes.
5. Rinse Thoroughly – Rinse your mouth with water and brush your teeth as usual with toothpaste.
