Tartar — the hardened plaque that builds up on your teeth — is one of the biggest obstacles to a healthy, beautiful smile. If left untreated, it can lead to gum disease, bad breath, and even tooth loss. But here’s the good news: You don’t need expensive dental treatments to fight back. With the right natural routine, you can become a Tartar Terminatorright at home!
Let’s unlock the secrets to your cleanest, freshest smile yet.
What Is Tartar and Why Is It a Problem?
- Tartar (a.k.a. dental calculus) forms when plaque hardens on the teeth and along the gum line.
- It traps bacteria, causes bad breath, inflamed gums, and eventually leads to cavities and gum disease.
- Brushing alone doesn’t remove tartar once it forms — you need a strategy!
