A smile chewable

Filed under Cleaning
Et oui il ne suffit pas de s’occuper du visage, des yeux et des lèvres. Il faut aussi entretenir son sourire ! Pour cela voici une recette bien spéciale tirée du livre de Josephine Fairley… je l’ai essayée et le résultat m’a surpris !
1 fraise bien mûre
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Ecrasez la fraise puis ajoutez le bicarbonate de soude. Prenez une vielle brosse à dent et étalez le mélange sur vos dents. Laissez poser 5 minutes. Brossez vous les dents pour enlever la mixture et rincez à l’eau. Je vous avoue ça ne goute pas très bon mais franchement le résultat est bien.
Pourquoi la fraise ? Elle contiendrait de l’acide malique aux propriétés astringentes. Otherwise, il y a aussi la sauge, les framboises et la menthe qui ont des vertus intéressantes pour les dents.
Note : Le bicarbonate de soude remplace bien le dentifrice lorsqu’on en manque !
