We love a proper cup of tea in the UK โ and if youโre a green tea drinker, your teeth might just be thanking you already. Hereโs why your favourite calming brew could be your smileโs best friend:

โ
๐๐ฟ๐ฒ๐๐ต๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐๐ต โ Bye-bye bad breath! Green tea helps neutralise the compounds that cause odours.
