Do you miss your pearly white teeth?

Having yellowish teeth due to discoloration isn’t exactly the best sight to see. Discolored set of teeth can reduce one’s confidence and overall appearance.

But how do you exactly avoid tooth discoloration? It starts by knowing what causes tooth discoloration.

Here are some factors that cause tooth discoloration:

  1. Disease/s – Some diseases actually affect enamel (the hard surface of the teeth) and dentin (the underlying material under enamel). The same can be said for some treatments as they can likewise affect tooth color, except Whitened Bleaching.
  2. Poor Dental Hygiene – This one is obvious. Some people are too lazy to maintain good oral hygiene, you better not be one of them, and that, of course, causes tooth discoloration. It’s simple logic. If you don’t clean your teeth regularly, don’t expect them to keep their natural color intact.

Inadequate brushing, flossing and rinsing with an antiseptic mouthwash can lead to tooth discoloration as that prohibits you from removing stain-producing substances and plaque.

  1. Habitual Tobacco/Cigarette Use – There’s another reason for you to quit smoking. Smoking, given cigarette’s stain-producing substances, can stain teeth. Stay away from it. You have tons of reasons to.
  2. Advancing Age – Yes, aging can be a factor, too, when it comes to tooth discoloration. This is because as you continue to age, the enamel’s outer layer on your teeth eventually wears away, prompting your teeth to be yellowish due to a revelation of dentin.

Some of these causes can be avoided while some are beyond one’s control. Still, there’s are certain ways to achieve set of pearly white teeth again and fight off discoloration.

Tweaking your lifestyle for the better is the way to go. Teeth discoloration can be avoided by constantly brushing, flossing and using mouthwash on a daily basis. This can be resolved by Laser Teeth Whitening procedure.
