I've always had good teeth, only ever had one filling and only ever gone to the dentist when it's unavoidable because they petrify me. I just cannot stand someone messing about in my mouth; I suffer with a bunged up nose most of the time and I panic totally as soon as the dentist goes in my mouth as I seem to lose the ability to breathe regardless of whether my nose is working or not.
Now I have a build up of tartar on the backs of my bottom teeth. It isn't bad particularly, but it's annoying me as as my teeth and they have always been nice and white. I am, however, a smoker and tea drinker so I know this tends to cause discolouration, but I brush 2 or 3 times a day, floss daily and use a decent mouthwash regularly.
Does anyone know of any home remedies to reduce/remove tartar build up at home? I really, really don't want to go to a dentist unless I absolutely have to as the thought of it is making my heart race :(
