Use a WineStraw if you drink red wine!!! ;)
Hmmm, I never heard of a WineStraw - sounds like a good idea. I suppose us cheapskates can use a regular straw.
Actually, too much citrus erodes the enamel from teeth.
Malic acid isn't an enzyme. It's not even close.
Thanks for the advice, for the insurance is very expersive. Thanks.

Scarlett smokes cigarettes, but she probably has great genes and those teeth whitening procedures.
Scarlett is also very young. She hasn't had time for decades of eating and drinking to darken her teeth. It's easy to have pearl white teeth when one is under the age of 30 even if one smokes and consumes all the wrong food and drinks. Of course, the idiot who wrote this article would not have gotten a paycheck if he had stated the obvious.
Eating less blueberries to keep your teeth whiter is stupid.
They are one of the healthiest foods you can find.
Sure its good to always rinse youre mouth out after eating but to say "nix" blueberries is terrible advice.
Agreed but most people are vain morons who care more about how they look than their actual health.
Women are the best example of this kind of stupidity. Between their hair chemicals, fake nails, fake boobs, facial fillers, Boxotx, etc., they expose themselves to more chemicals than asbestos workers.
Then they wonder why they have such high rates of breast and cervical cancer
Jack - have a problem with women do ya? I'll bet you check out every one of that fake women you talk about every time they walk by. Probably don't give you a second glance.
This article is a waste of time and space.
Someone needs to get a REAL job, and WORK for a living instead of writing cheesy, frivolous drivel like this.
Please, I avoided all the stain-causing foods and drinks and still had off-white teeth. I tried "whitening toothpaste" and other over the counter whiteners. All of it was a waste of time. And no, I don't smoke.
Professional heavy-duty whiteners may seem like a waste of money, but they really work. My dentist created a custom tray for my teeth, and I used Opalescence for two weeks everyday and my teeth were almost perfectly white (and they still are). I do touchups every now and then to keep them bright white, and the replacement gel is cheaper on Amazon than ordering from my dentist (not surprisingly).
So if you want white teeth, skip all the small stuff and pay up for something serious. Of course, some people are just lucky to have naturally white teeth.
I use Liquid Paper for shiny white smiles!
kind of a racist article, don't you think... !!??
Are you serious? Exactly how is the article racist?
It'a WHITE TEETH, not WHITE'S TEETH, moron.
Duh.
Jumbog - Dumbest. Comment. Ever.
Now if someone made a joke like, "How do you find a black guy at night? Ask him to smile", then that would be racist.
 It's true blueberries are a superfood, very good for you. I found this interesting about using certain types of foods to fight stains like califlower, carrots and apples. A wine straw is an interesting idea, never thought of it.Â
What moron wrote this? Malic acid is just that - an acid. It's not an enzyme. Go back to 7th grade biology class, please.
enamel erosion is a problem watch the citrus. stains on top of enamel? Try Crest 3D White toothpaste. This will not bleach but removes surface stains very well
Well, I can not refute the article. However, I'm one of those who believe in the days of yore about cleaning teeth. Baking Soda has certainly done me wonders. Mid forties here...with very white teeth. Of course I use a Sonic Care toothbrush. Feels like I went to the dentist daily.
