What causes stains?
There are a number of factors which can lead to teeth discolouration. In the case of superficial or deep stains and blemishes. While there are a number of lifestyle factors that can affect the shade of your teeth. Often brightly coloured food and beverages are the culprit of common discolouration. These include:
- Soft drinks
- Red wine
- Tea and coffee
- Acidic foods such as lemon
- Sauces, most predominantly soy sauce
In addition to these, any foods, lollies or drinks that have high sugar content are likely to be damaging your teeth and can affect their colour. Another significant factor that can cause teeth discolouration is smoking. Smoking has the potential to be extremely damaging not only to your overall health, but also to your dental health and the colour of your teeth. Not implementing a regular dental hygiene routine can also lead to teeth discolouration.
Teeth Whitening
During your initial consultation our dental professionals will assess the individual degree of discolouration of your teeth. They will then suggest a whitening treatment that is suited to address these concerns.
