How to Achieve a Celebrity Smile

12 Aug How to Achieve a Celebrity Smile

It’s hard not to notice the incredibly bright, white teeth of our favorite celebrity smiles. From actors to musicians to reality TV stars, it seems like a healthy, glowing smile is par for the course for the rich and famous. Achieving a beautiful smile doesn’t have to be out of reach for everyone else, though. If you want your smile to shine as brightly as celebrities like Miley Cyrus, Kim Kardashian, or Angelina Jolie, follow these top, dentist-approved tips to maintain your pearly whites and achieve beautiful celebrity smiles.

Make Follow-Up Appointments

Having your teeth professionally whitened is a sure fire way to achieve the smile you want, but it does require maintenance. Expect to see your dentist for a touch-up at least once a year, depending on the natural color of your teeth, the porousness of your teeth and your eating habits. Celebrity smiles can happen overnight, but they require upkeep!

Mind Your Diet

Your diet isn’t just affecting your waistline, it could also be yellowing your smile. Steer clear of red wine, coffee, tea and soda, all of which are serious culprits of teeth stains. It’s not only these foods that can do a number on your smile, though. Any colorful food has the potential to stain teeth, no matter how healthy it may be. Be sure to rinse your mouth or brush after consuming colorful foods to avoid permanent staining.

Straws Are Your Friends

Don’t want to give up your beloved coffee or tea? Try drinking it through a straw instead to avoid ruining your teeth. This is a common trick celebs use to maintain a white smile after a teeth whitening treatment.

Do It Yourself

Not ready to splurge on a professional, in-office whitening? Try this easy DIY treatment for a little refresh: mix several teaspoons of baking soda with lemon juice to make a paste. Dip your toothbrush into the paste and scrub teeth gently for about 2 minutes. Rinse thoroughly to reveal a whiter, brighter smile in no time!

Fake It With Makeup

If you need to whiten your teeth in a pinch, fake a brighter smile with the right shade of lipstick. Hues with cooler, blue undertones will contrast with the yellow in your teeth to make them appear whiter. It’s a red carpet trick celebrities swear by!
