While
everyone seems to think toothpaste is the only answer to
maintaining clean teeth, there are other options. Quite
a few people brush with baking soda, Mao
Zedong claimed he maintained his beautiful teeth by drinking
copious amounts of Chinese black tea, and
some of the healthiest teeth in the world are found behind
the chapped lips of the Greenland Inuit. The Inuit have
controlled tartar for tens of millennia by desserting nightly
on walrus saliva popsicles and gargling away morning breath
with mouthfuls of salmon eyes.
