Please look for this logo on your ballot papers — that is Labour Party (LP)!
Incase you don't see "LP" written on it, don't worry.

Just vote for Peter Obi grin

-when was the last time you changed your toothbrush?
-what type of toothbrush do you use?
-are you the type that rather spend money on that useless toothpaste called MYMY? Do you feel spending money on LISTERINE is a waste?

Answer these first before I continue
I bought Mymy last week and I've been regretting it since. Unfortunately, I have little options at the moment.

Smartdoctor:
the method used in tooth polish is enough to make you lose a lot of mineral elements from your tooth especially calcium. And if care is not taking you have to be careful of using it to cut strong food substance after the procedure
You guys just type anything and feel you know it all.

Professional scaling and polishing done in a dental clinic is with an ultrasonic scaler which uses the energy from sound to dislodge calcified or hard 'dirts and stains' from the surface of the teeth.

It can't/ does not cause demineralization, I.e you don't lose calcium or any mineral from the teeth and it doesn't affect your diet and you can chew well after.

It helps to keep the teeth and gums clean and healthy and helps with mouth odour too.

Also contrary to many posts here, it is quite affordable and can be from 5,200 to 10,000 and above depending on the environment. Nigerians always seem to have money for enjoyment and everything except their health undecided

It is also very beneficial and almost everyone should be encouraged to clean their teeth regularly (the ideal thing is every 6 months)

Hard bristled toothbrushes and charcoal or charcoal based toothpastes are also too abrasive and can wear teeth down with long term or repeated use.

Many home bleaching kits as sold online or in beauty parlours and pharmacies are also actually dangerous and their whitening effect is never permanent, especially due to the nature of our diet in Nigeria (we take a lot of coloured foods). Hence with time, the teeth will get darker.

White teeth shouldn't be the goal, clean and healthy teeth is the goal.

Most overly White teeth you see online e.g Davido is not whitening.
White coloured Veneers were made and cemented onto the teeth surface to give that bright white colour, no teeth bleaching agent will give you such.

I am sure if more people knew about scaling and polishing, they would embrace it and we will have healthier, cleaner and bad-odour-free mouths

If it's tartar(already formed), all these local or homemade remedies might not be effective, he has to visit a dentist to see if he can get the stain removed.


As for you my sarcastic friend, we're cool. undecided

It won't work, I can assure you. grin

Add some more to the money and visit a good dental clinic.

Most of those brand names toothpastes are just ripping people off.

They don't even contain fluoride and don't protect the teeth from decay.

Can dentist make a yellowish teeth to white?

Firstly, normal healthy adult teeth can vary in colour from white to off white to cream or yellow.

Baby/children teeth are whiter.

It is nature, that is how it should be and the emphasis should be on clean, healthy teeth and not colour like most of us tend to believe.

Now, the teeth can also be stained yellow or dark brown or similar colour especially due to poor oral hygiene and diet (tomato paste, coke, Fanta, coffee, HERBS!)

In such instances, Dentists or Dental hygienists can clean your teeth to make them whiter and brighter with an ultrasonic scaler; this procedure is painless (though there may be sensitivity in some people) and not too time consuming. Price ranges from 6,000 to 20,000 or more depending on the centre.

You can also have bleaching done though I don't really advice this unless it is very necessary.

The effect of bleaching isn't permanent for life as the teeth will still get discoloured but one can always repeat the bleaching process (though not very often).
