Use this method at night to allow your teeth to rest without food or drinks afterward.

FAQ:
How long does it take to see results?
Most people notice subtle improvement in brightness within a week. For deeper stains, continue daily use for 2–3 weeks.
Is this method safe for enamel?
Yes. Banana peels are non-abrasive and do not contain acid or bleaching agents, making them safe for daily use.
Can I use green bananas or overripe ones?
Ripe bananas with yellow skin and small brown spots are ideal. Green bananas lack the soft texture and mineral content, while overripe ones can be too mushy and less effective.
