How to: Get a Hollywood Smile
Step 1: Electric Brush – Oral-B’s Smile Director Dr Uchenna Okoye advises people to brush their teeth with an electric toothbrush to keep strains at bay. She recommends the Oral-B Genius 9000, it has a special whitening head with a cup in the middle that is like a hygienist brush. However, any electric tooth brush will work well.
Step 2: Clean and Polish – Dental Expert David Cocker says that rough surfaces encourage the build up of stains and plaque. He suggests removing the plaque before it has a chance to dry. His advice is to use the Rapid White Pro Clean & Polish System weekly to help achieve visibly whiter teeth and remove more plaque and stains than the electric toothbrush can do alone.
Step 3: Eat Whiter Than White – Both Dr Okoye and Cocker advise people to implement a whiter than white diet. This means avoiding dark coloured foods and drinks such as red wine, coffee, cola and curry. Try to avoid anything that would stain a white t-shirt. Meanwhile eating crunchy fruit and veg like apples, celery and broccoli will actively help clean and protect the teeth.
Step 4: Use a 2-Step system – To keep the mouth healthy and teeth whiter Dr Okoye suggests rinsing the mouth with water straight after eating. He also suggests using a 2 step whitening treatment. First brush your teeth with Oral-B 3D white Luxe Perfection toothpaste for up to 100% surface stain removal in just 3 days. Then brush them again with Oral-B 3D White Luxe Whitening Accelerator for extra whitening and 24 hour stain protection.
Step 5: Add Some Lippie – The final step is to choose the right shade of lipstick. Dr Okoye suggests applying a blue-based one such as palm colour. This will counteract any yellowness in the teeth. MDMflow’s Vamp Lipstick is a good example because it is a deep palm shade with a semi-matte finish.
