Teeth discolour for a variety of reasons, potentially due to age or from the development of surface stains. Many foods and beverages like tea, coffee and red wine as well as tobacco and some medications can cause discoloration in teeth. Particular products like chewing gum and toothpaste can help eliminate surface staining on teeth; however, these products should be used along with professional dental cleanings, which aid in maintaining healthy teeth and gums.
Teeth are meant to appear as grayish or light yellow, but some people prefer to have a whiter smile. For that reason, teeth whitening options can be used by a dentist to whiten teeth. The patient must be assessed to determine the cause of the staining, and the effectiveness of the treatment . This is particularly important if the patient has had dental work done on their teeth. We offer in-office zoom whitening and take home whitening at Glenashton Dental Centre. Come in for a consultation if the discoloration of your teeth is a concern so that we can evaluate your teeth and suggest the best product for you.
Having the smile you desire may be as simple as having your teeth professionally whitened.
