Smokers hear the same advice over and over. Grab some baking soda. Scrub harder. The stains will disappear and tartar won’t stand a chance.<\/p>\r\n
Baking soda does lift some surface stains. That’s real. But tartar isn’t just a stain sitting on top of your teeth. It’s hardened plaque, and once it sets, you don’t brush it away at home no matter how determined you feel on a Sunday morning.<\/p>\r\n
\u2022 A little polishing, especially if tobacco has left light surface marks that bug you every time you smile<\/p>\r\n
\u2022 Too much scrubbing wears at your enamel, and that trade is never worth making.<\/p>\r\n
\u2022 The myth itself keeps people waiting for a magic trick, which gets frustrating after a while<\/p>\r\n
\u2022 Smoking still feeds the problem, even if your toothpaste has baking soda mixed into it<\/p>\r\n
