Toothpaste is something that we all use every day. But did you know that it can do a lot more than clean your teeth? Below are just a few of the countless uses for toothpaste that people have come up with.

牙膏是我們所有人每天都在用的東西。但是你知道它的作用不只是清潔牙齒而已嗎？以下只是人們所想到牙膏無數用途中的其中幾樣。

Stop Itching

Have an itchy mosquito bite? Try putting a little toothpaste on it. The menthol in the toothpaste will cool your skin and take your mind off the itch.

止癢

有被蚊子叮過覺得癢嗎？試試看在叮咬的地方塗上一點牙膏。牙膏中的薄荷醇能冰鎮皮膚，讓你忘了癢。

Get Rid of Smells

After you cook with garlic or onions, it can be hard to get rid of the smell on your hands. It may seem strange, but scrubbing your fingers with toothpaste is a great solution to this problem! This trick can also be used on items that have developed a smell, such as plastic food containers.

去除異味

用大蒜或洋蔥烹飪後，可能很難將手上的味道去除。這也許看似奇怪，但用牙膏擦洗手指是解決這個問題很棒的方法！這個祕訣還可用在已產生味道的物品上，像是塑膠製的食品容器。

Make Jewelry Shine

Who would have thought that toothpaste is almost as good at cleaning jewelry as it is at cleaning teeth? Rub toothpaste on silver jewelry or scrub diamonds with toothpaste and a soft toothbrush. They’ll be as bright as your pearly whites in no time!

讓珠寶閃閃發光

誰會想到牙膏在清潔珠寶上幾乎與清潔牙齒的效果一樣好？在銀製首飾上抹上牙膏，或用牙膏和軟毛牙刷來刷洗鑽石。它們馬上就會跟你的牙齒一樣潔白！
