Choose a ripe banana
A soft, ripe banana works best. Look for yellow skin with some brown spotting for ideal mineral content.
Peel and prepare
Break off a small section of the peel. Use the inner white side for application.
Rub the peel on your teeth
Gently rub the inside of the peel on your teeth for one full minute in circular motions.
Focus especially on areas with visible surface stains.
Optional step: Let it sit
For extra whitening, let the banana residue remain on your teeth for one additional minute before brushing.
Brush and rinse
Brush your teeth as usual using your regular toothpaste.
Rinse thoroughly to remove any residue.
