HEALTH TIP OF THE WEEK
 
Want whiter teeth?
If your pearly whites are dulled by surface stains, a whitening toothpaste may help lighten your teeth slightly. A whitening toothpaste can't change the natural color of your teeth, however. For more noticeable results, ask your dentist about tooth-whitening bleaches.
