iPhones hit the ground running in 2008, although development started in 2005. The first model of iPhones was called the iPhone 2G or iPhone 1 and while not everyone had a smartphone back then, it\u2019s hard to find someone who doesn\u2019t <\/em>own a smartphone today.<\/p>\n

While Androids own most of the smartphone market share, iPhone owners tend to be diehard fans and wouldn\u2019t trade their device for anything in the world. Touchscreens are now a part of everyday life, and because we use our iPhones so much, it\u2019s so easy to scratch their displays. This article is about how to fix mild scratches on your screen without going to the repair shop and paying for iPhone screen repair<\/a><\/u>.<\/p>\n

If you have shattered your display to pieces, or have a severe scratch on the screen, you\u2019ll probably have to head to the Apple Store and get your screen removed and replaced. iPhone screens are made of three components: the LCD, the digitizer, and the glass overlay that sits on top of these bottom layers.<\/p>\n

If you have done serious damage to your iPhone screen, you will likely have to have all of the screen components removed and replaced by all-new screen parts. Luckily, if you just have a mild or even moderate scratch or ding on your iPhone screen, there are some home remedies you can try that you won\u2019t have to pay for.<\/p>\n

Using Toothpaste<\/h2>\n

Your toothpaste (non-gel) is already abrasive, so using this household item can fix scratches on your iPhone display the same way it will clean your teeth. If you\u2019d like, you can use a baking soda paste instead, which is abrasive like a non-gel toothpaste.<\/p>\n

Apply toothpaste to an applicator<\/h3>\n

The applicator can be a q-tip, paper towel, toothbrush, or soft flannel cloth – it really doesn\u2019t matter. Apply a pea-sized amount of toothpaste to the applicator to avoid creating a mess of toothpaste or baking soda paste on your iPhone display.<\/p>\n

Buff the scratch with the toothpaste or baking soda paste<\/h3>\n

Now you will apply your toothpaste or baking soda mix to the scratch on your iPhone. If you rub it around gently in a circular motion, you can continue this until the scratch is no longer noticeable. Now you don\u2019t have to go out and get iPhone repair.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t apply too much pressure, because baking soda paste and toothpaste are already abrasive. Continue to gently scrub in a circular motion until you see the scratch slowly disappear.<\/p>
