Causes of Stained Teeth

Teeth can become stained or discolored for a variety of reasons, ranging from simple everyday habits to more serious health conditions. Some common causes of teeth stains include:

• Certain foods and drinks: Coffee, tea, red wine, and dark-colored fruits and vegetables can contribute to staining.
• Tobacco use: Smoking or using other tobacco products can also lead to tooth stains.
• Age: As you age, the outer layer of your teeth (the enamel) begins to wear away, revealing the inner layer of your teeth (the dentin). The dentin is yellow in color, which can make it appear like you have yellow teeth.
• Certain medical conditions: Conditions such as osteoporosis and diabetes can cause changes in the structure of your teeth, making them more susceptible to getting discolored.
• Poor oral hygiene: If you do not brush and floss regularly, plaque and tartar can build up on your teeth, causing them to become stained.

Teeth Whitening FAQs

Are there any side effects of professional whitening treatments?

The only side effect of having your teeth whitened by a professional is temporary tooth sensitivity. Most patients report that this usually goes away within a day or two after the treatment.

How long does the whitening procedure take?

The whitening treatment done in-office takes about an hour to complete. The at-home whitening system can be done in just a few short treatments, depending on how often you use it.

How long will my results last?

Teeth whitening results are not permanent. However, they will usually last for at least a year with proper care. You can help prolong your results by avoiding foods and beverages that can cause staining and practicing good oral hygiene.

What are the benefits of in-office whitening treatments over whitening strips?

In-office teeth whitening offers several benefits over whitening strips. They are more effective, and they also produce better results in a shorter amount of time. In addition, in-office treatments are much more comfortable than strips, which can often irritate the gums.
