You don’t need expensive treatments or harsh chemicals to support a bright, healthy smile.

While you can’t remove tartar at home, you can prevent it from forming — and keep your teeth looking naturally fresh and white — with simple, science-backed habits.

Let’s explore what tartar really is, how to stop it before it starts, and safe ways to enhance your smile — without damaging your teeth.

🧽 What Is Tartar?

Tartar (or dental calculus) is hardened plaque — a sticky film of bacteria that forms on your teeth every day.

When plaque isn’t removed by brushing and flossing, it combines with minerals in your saliva and turns into tartar within 24–72 hours.

Once it forms:

• It’s rock-hard
• It traps stains (causing yellowing)
• It irritates gums — leading to gingivitis and gum disease
• It can only be removed by a dental professional

🔍 You can’t scrub it off with baking soda or lemon juice — no matter how viral the “hack.”
