It also detoxifies your mouth to freshen breath and fight gum disease<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><b>2 teaspoons baking soda. <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Baking soda is a very mild abrasive that polishes the teeth and removes stains.<\/span><\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>1\u00bd teaspoons finely ground sea salt. <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This ingredient is loaded with trace minerals that help to strengthen and rebuild your teeth.
