The Prevalence of Tooth Discoloration

Tooth discoloration and staining is a relatively common problem for many people. Some of our teeth are porous and stain can stay on them. Red wine, soda, coffee, tea and cola among other food and drink, contribute to the discoloration of teeth over time.

Medications such as the antibiotic tetracycline can cause significant staining, resulting in yellow, grayish teeth which are used in childhood. Smokers’ teeth can become permanently more stained if the discoloration is not treated in a timely manner regularly. Tooth trauma caused by a fall or collision can cause tooth discoloration.

Trauma could result in tooth death (tooth necrosis) which would cause discoloration. Typically, root canal therapy is required as the treatment for tooth necrosis, after which internal bleaching can be performed to correct discoloration. Tooth brushing can only remove simple stain on teeth and make them little brighter but not more, it alone can’t brighten teeth dulled by years of exposure to such discoloring agents told above.

In fact, people with dull teeth sometimes over-brush in an attempt to eliminate stains, and this can harm the enamel covering of the tooth especially in place where enamel and gums meet. So a professional teeth whitening is a different procedure and it is more effective than which we apply some methods at home.
