How to Get Rid of Calcium Buildup on Teeth at Home Naturally

Howdy there, y’all! Let’s talk about gettin’ rid of that nasty gunk on your teeth, you know, that calcium stuff. They call it tartar sometimes, real fancy-like, but I just call it plain old yucky.

First off, what causes this mess? Well, it’s like this, if you don’t go and brush them teeth regular, all sorts of nasty little critters start growin’ in your mouth. They make this sticky film, like somethin’ you’d find on the bottom of an old pot. They call it plaque. And if you leave that plaque sit there, it gets hard as a rock. That’s the tartar, or calcium, or whatever you wanna call it.

Not brushin’ your teeth good.
Lettin’ food sit in your mouth.
Just plain not carin’ about your teeth.

So, how do you get rid of it? Well, the best way, and I mean the REAL best way, is to go see a tooth doctor, a dentist. They got them special tools and know-how to scrape all that gunk off. They can clean your teeth real good, better than you ever could at home. It’s like gettin’ your car fixed, sometimes you just gotta take it to a mechanic, you know?

But, if you can’t get to the dentist right away, or if you just want to keep things clean in between visits, there’s some stuff you can do at home. Now, I ain’t no fancy doctor, but I know a thing or two about keepin’ things clean.

Brushing is key! You gotta brush them teeth, and brush ’em good. Don’t just swish the brush around for a few seconds and call it quits. You gotta get in there, scrub all the sides, top and bottom, front and back. It’s like scrubbin’ a dirty floor, you gotta put some elbow grease into it!

And speaking of scrubbin’, baking soda is your friend. Yeah, that stuff you use for bakin’ biscuits. You can mix it with a little salt, and it makes a real good teeth cleaner. It’s kinda gritty, so it helps scrub that tartar off. Just don’t go scrubbin’ too hard, you don’t wanna wear your teeth down! Just wet your toothbrush, dip it in the baking soda and salt mix, and brush like you normally would. It might taste a little funny, but it works good.

You can also find special tartar-control toothpastes at the store. These got some extra stuff in ’em, like fluoride and pyrophosphates, that helps fight the plaque and keep the tartar from buildin’ up. They ain’t magic, but they can help. Look for the ones that say “tartar control” or “calculus control” on the label.

Now, I heard tell of some fancy way they use air and some kind of powder to blast the tartar off. Sounds like somethin’ out of a sci-fi movie, don’t it? They call it air abrasion, and it’s somethin’ the dentist can do. They use this little machine that shoots out air and this powder, like bakin’ soda but finer, and it just blasts the tartar away. I ain’t never had it done myself, but I hear it works good.

But look here, the most important thing is to be consistent. You can’t just brush your teeth once in a blue moon and expect them to stay clean. You gotta brush ’em regularly, at least twice a day, mornin’ and night. And don’t forget to floss! Flossin’ gets in between your teeth where the toothbrush can’t reach. It’s like gettin’ the dust bunnies out from under the couch, you gotta get in them tight spaces.

So, to sum it all up, gettin’ rid of calcium buildup on your teeth is all about keepin’ things clean. Brush regular, use some bakin’ soda or tartar-control toothpaste, and go see the dentist when you can. And if you hear about that air blastin’ thing, well, that might be worth a try too. Just remember, takin’ care of your teeth is like takin’ care of anything else, you gotta put in the effort to keep ’em lookin’ good and feelin’ good.

And one more thing, watch what you eat and drink. Sugary stuff and all that soda pop, it just feeds them nasty critters in your mouth and makes the plaque and tartar build up faster. Try to eat healthy, fruits and vegetables, and drink plenty of water. It’s good for your whole body, not just your teeth.
