Two Ways to Whiten Your Teeth Before the Holidays

Purple as a tooth whitener too, who knew?

Hello, Gorgeous!

Chances are good that if you’re planning on visiting friends or family over the holiday break, you’ll be doing a lot of smiling…or grimacing.

Here are two quick ways to make your chompers look whiter and brighter.

Aquasonic Black Series Ultra Whitening Toothbrush

I’m not generally a huge fan of electric type toothbrushes since they can set off my vertigo. That’s not the case with the Aquasonic which has nearly 116k rave reviews.

Here’s what I love. It’s ergonomic, so there’s no awkward trying to find ways to brush your teeth while holding the slightly oversized unit. It’s powerful (it produces 40,000 vibrations per minute) without making me queasy. There’s a newer version, but I’m still using the one with four settings - clean, soft, whiten, massage. It even has the American Dental Association (ADA) Council of approval for helping to remove plaque and prevent and reduce gingivitis. Did I mention how affordable it is for such a world-class unit? ($39.95, Amazon.com). It’s a nice holiday gift idea, but only if you’re sure the recipient won’t be insulted!

Pair with Venus Visage Purple Toothpaste which is a fun way of keeping your teeth whiter longer. It uses idea that purple and yellow are opposite on the color wheel, therefore the purple pigments could cancel yellowing to help keep teeth whiter. ( $9.95, Amazon.com).

So what’s the verdict on the whitening? I noticed a brighter effect the first time I used the Aquasonic. I’ll try using both together to see if I can amp up the whitening.
