Why home remedies do not work (and are dangerous) to eliminate tartar

Many people look for “how to eliminate tartar at home” and find home-based solutions that put their dental health at risk. Below we deny some myths.

Remove tartar with baking soda and lemon

The mixture of bicarbonate (highly abrasive) with lemon (acid) is particularly harmful. These remedies:

  • Do not dissolve tartar: The calcified tartar is not dissolved with these solutions.
  • They damage the enamel: They wear and erode tooth enamel, causing dental sensitivity And making your tooth be more prone to the long-term staining and formation of tartar.

Remove the sars with “scrapers”

The use of any sharp object (knocks, metal tools purchased online) to scrape the tartar can cause serious injuries:

  • Gum damage: You can cause wounds, bleeding, and infections.
  • Scraps in enamel: A scratched enamel creates more micro-fissures where the plate can adhere more easily.

Don't wait for the tartar to risk your smile!
