Parsley- that's the best thing beside brushing and mouthwash. I've heard some people say chewing a piece of paper napkin works, but I've never tried it. I like Freshmint gum by Trident.

Try brushing your teeth.

It might not be your teeth that's giving you problems, it could be your gums. If you're really concerned, see a dentist. It'll be worth your while to make sure you take adequate care of your teeth.\n\nIn any case, be sure to brush your teeth regularly (especially before you sleep!), floss the crevices in between to get rid of bits of stuck food, and rinse with mouthwash to get rid of residual plaque.\n\nTo brush effectively, you need to angle your toothbrush to a 45 degree angle against the your tooth and massage lightly (with finger pressure only - don't press with your entire arm) in circles around the tooth. Brush two teeth at a go, and make 10-20 circles per pair. It'll take a while, alternatively use an electric toothbrush.\n\nWhen you first floss, you might experience some bleeding, but it'll eventually get less and less as your gums get more healthy.\n\nFinally, back to your teeth - drink milk, eat green leafy vegetables and get some sunshine now and then. Your teeth are made of calcium so anything with calcium will give you strong teeth (and bones).

you need to see a dentist, but in the mean time, take something for pain, like advil, and here's some ideas until you get there, try rinsing your mouth out with warm salt water, if there is an infection in the tooth, this will help some, do it repeatly if you have to, other things you can try is rubbing oil of clove on it, or soaking an aspirin on the bad tooth, or you can try the over counter stuff like oragel.

You could try making a paste with bicarbonate-of-soda and a little water, then applying it to the teeth.  It may not taste too good, and it is harmless.  This product cleans almost everything.

Ten Top Ways to Whiten Your Teeth\n\nAnd they are all simple!\n\nBefore you try something more drastic, give these simple little tips a try. You might find that your teeth are white than you ever imagined. \n1. Avoid coffee and red wine as much as possible. Both will quickly stain your teeth.\n\n2. Raw veggies will clean your teeth so you not only have a healthy snack, you are cleaning your teeth at the same time. \n\n3. Keep an eye on your toothbrush. It can't do its job if it is worn out. It might sound obvious, but you have no idea how many people hold on to the same old brush. If you think about it, it is almost impossible to brush away film that hides your white teeth, with a brush that has worn out bristles.\n\n4. Strawberries have a natural bleaching effect and are loaded with Vitamin C, so you simply can't lose. Rub the pulp over your teeth and then rinse.\n\n5. Brushing your teeth every 12 hours is considered a rule of thumb. This will prevent plaque from forming and stains setting. \n\n6. Lemon peel massaged over the teeth is often used for whitening. Rinse thoroughly. \n\n7. Avoid smoking. This is one of the quickest ways of turning white teeth yellow.\n\n8. Floss at least once a day. Stains can easily form between teeth. \n\n9. Use whitening toothpastes that have the American Dental Association seal of approval.\n\n10. Have your teeth professionally cleaned once a year. Your teeth will feel so much cleaner. Makes you wonder about the rest of the time.

Do you mean the human teeth you have in your mouth?  Or do you mean human teeth that are out of the mouth?  If in the mouth, then maintain good oral hygiene by brushing and flossing reguarly and properly as well as seeing your dentist every 6 months.  If you mean teeth that are no longer in the mouth.. I'm going to assume you mean some type of accident has occured and you need to keep it preserved until you can get to a dentist.  In that case, the best way to preserve the tooth is to place it in your mouth between your cheek and gums.. the next best way to preserve it is to place it in a glass of milk.  If these are teeth that have been extracted and you're just wanting to keep them, then just put them in a jar, box, envelope, etc... they'll be fine.  But I must tell you, it is not advised to keep teeth because they are a biohazard and should be disposed of accordingly.

Best remedy is to visit your dentist. Possible treatments that the dentist will do is cleaning or the so called oral prophylaxis (to elimate calcular deposits which cause bad breath) then restoration or filling of decayed teeth. The dentist may also advise you to use a mouthwash. Any mouthwash available in the market will do. But personally, i prefer using Betadine Oral Antiseptic. Usually after these procedures you'll find an improvement. If after all these you still have bad breath it's best if you consult with a physician for a check up coz you may have an underlying disease which causes bad breath or HALITOSIS.

Take good care of them.  Improvement can be seen from brushing twice daily, flossing once (usually before bed), and maybe using a mouthwash or anticavity rinse.  If you already do these things, maybe consult your dentist.

Don't depend on "natural remedies".  Many of them are just snake oil.  Instead, start by brushing and flossing at least twice a day.\n\nThen go see a dentist any way.  If you explain up front that you don't have insurance, but can pay some monthly, they may take you in as a patient.  Or they will definitely know other options for treatment that you can check into.\n\nCheck with the local county health department, or whatever the local equivalent is.  Many times dentists volunteer their services for low income patients, or do so for reduced rates.  If there's a dental school, or dental assistant program at the local college, often they will do basic exams and cleanings for a low fee.\n\nBottom line - you gotta do something.  The poster at the dentist's office is true:  "If you ignore your teeth, they will go away."

you should brush your teeth  at least 3 times a day.  rinsing with something like listerine between those brushings helps too.  Make sure to brush after you eat something sugary.
