How to use toothpaste in everyday life: 5 effective tips

Toothpaste is usually associated with oral hygiene, but it can be a very versatile tool when it comes to various household tasks. UAportal has prepared 5 ways to use it and told you how it can contribute to the cleanliness of your living space.

Restoring the shine of metal cookware

Dealing with stubborn stains and grime on metal pots and pans can be time-consuming. However, if your cookware does not have a special coating, toothpaste can help. Apply a small amount to the surface and gently rub it with a brush or sponge.

Whitening tile joints

Apply a small amount of toothpaste to a soft cloth or sponge and dab it over the stained area. Rub thoroughly in a circular motion and see how it effortlessly brightens the dull spaces between tiles.

Cleaning the walls

Unsightly nail marks or stains on white walls or wallpaper can be a source of frustration. Fortunately, toothpaste can be an effective temporary solution. Apply a small amount to the affected area, spread it gently, and blend it with your finger like a makeshift putty.

Whitening shoes

White shoes accumulate stubborn stains and discolor over time. Fortunately, toothpaste can help. Take a cloth and squeeze a small amount of the product onto it. Gently wipe the damaged areas of your favorite white sneakers.

Keeping toilet clean

Take a tube of toothpaste (preferably one that is nearing the end of its shelf life), and pierce it with a needle in several places. Then dip it into the toilet bowl.
