The presence of the whitening agent along with the abrasive crystals in the toothpaste is usually enough to get rid of the stain. Thoroughly rinse the toothpaste from the washcloth. Moisten it once again and wipe away any leftover toothpaste off the site.<\/li><li>Vinegar. With a paper towel, moisten a small area with vinegar and massage it on the site of the stain.

Check if the stain is fully removed before drying the garment. If it is still present, do not place in a dryer. <\/li><li>Sponge the lingering stain with white vinegar.

If denture cleaning tablets are available, use several instead of baking soda and repeat step 3. <\/li><li>In case a trace of the stain lingers after using baking soda, prepare a paste composed of powder fabric bleach and water. Rub this paste over the site and leave in place for a few hours. In a sink with a half cup of powdered bleach, soak the garment.
