Fortunately, technology today provides us with painless and safe methods of brightening teeth, with results in as little as one application. If you feel self-conscious because of the color of your teeth, you’re not alone. You might even feel resigned to the fact that you may never have the vividly white smile you’ve always hoped to achieve. Maybe you have used whitening toothpaste and mouthwash with no real benefit. Perhaps you have a tough time trusting at-home bleaching treatments or drugstore kits. Discoloration can even reach below the top layer of enamel and into the dentin below, creating deep stains that are difficult to remove. You may have struggled with discolored teeth your whole life, with or without a known cause. Other sources of tooth discoloration are the excessive application of or exposure to fluoride, as well as exposure to certain medications and chemicals in utero. Smokers are also particularly susceptible to tooth staining, because of the presence of harsh chemicals in cigarette tobacco. Coffee and dark colored sodas are top culprits of tooth discoloration, along with tea, wine, and a variety of foods that are artificially flavored.
Because of society’s extreme consumption of artificially colored and highly staining foods and drinks, most of us have some degree of staining on our teeth.
