What causes teeth to become stained?

Over time, your teeth can go from white to stained or discolored for many reasons, for example:

Food and Drink

Coffee, tea, red wine, turmeric, and red sauces are some major staining culprits. The Intense color pigments called chromogens that attach to the white, outer part of your "tooth enamel".

Smoking / Tobacco Use

Two chemicals found in tobacco / marijuana create stubborn stains: Tar and/ or nicotine. Tar is naturally dark. Nicotine is colorless until it’s mixed with oxygen. Then, it turns into a yellowish, surface-staining substance.

Age

Below the hard, white outer shell of your tooth (enamel) is a softer area called dentin. As we age, the outer enamel layer gets thinner with brushing and more of the yellowish dentin shows through.

Trauma

If you’ve been hit in the mouth, your tooth may change color because it reacts to an injury by laying down more dentin, which is a darker layer under the enamel.

Medications

Tooth darkening can be a side effect of certain antihistamines, antipsychotics and high blood pressure medications. Young children who are exposed to antibiotics like tetracycline and doxycycline when their teeth are forming, may have discoloration of their adult teeth later in life. Chemotherapy and head and neck radiation can also darken teeth.

Starting Color

We are all born with a tooth color that ranges from yellow-brownish to greenish-grey, and intensifies over time. Yellow-brown is generally more responsive to bleaching than green-grey.

Translucency and Thinness

Genetic traits that become more pronounced with age. While all teeth show some translucency, those that are opaque and thick have an advantage, they appear lighter in color, show more sparkle and are responsive to bleaching. Teeth that are thinner and more transparent – most notably the front teeth – have less of the pigment for bleaching. According to cosmetic dentists, transparency is the only condition that cannot be corrected by any form of teeth whitening.

Eating Habits

The habitual consumption of red wine, coffee, tea, cola, carrots, oranges and other deeply-colored beverages and foods causes considerable staining over the years. In addition, acidic foods such as citrus fruits and vinegar contribute to enamel erosion. As a result, the surface becomes more transparent and more of the yellow-colored dentin shows through.

Extrinsic stains

Appear on the surface of the teeth as a result of exposure to dark-colored beverages, foods and tobacco, and routine wear and tear. Superficial extrinsic stains are minor and can be removed with brushing and prophylactic dental cleaning. Stubborn extrinsic stains can be removed with more involved efforts, like teeth whitening. This is the most common and why teeth whitening is mostly requested.

Intrinsic stains

Formed on the interior of teeth. Intrinsic stains result from trauma, aging, exposure to minerals during tooth formation and/or excessive ingestion of fluoride.

How White Can You Go?

Results may vary. Based considerably from person to person. Many are immediately delighted with their outcome, while others may need multiple treatments to reach their teeth whitening goals. Before you receive any teeth whitening treatment, ask your technician for a realistic idea of the results you are likely to achieve and how long it should take to achieve them. Our teeth whitening technician can show you on our shade chart what is possible session by session to reach your teeth whitening goals.

Shade Charts

We have a live example our teeth whitening through a chart of teeth available for viewing prior to your service so you can see where you began and where you ended. Tooth color is typically measured with shade guides. These are hand-held displays of wide ranges of tooth colors.

This shade guide standard incorporates shades, systematically arranged from light to dark into four color groups, and provides a universal tooth-color terminology.

While teeth whitening can occasionally lighten tooth color by nine or more shades, most of those who use teeth whitening are likely to see a change of two to seven shades.

Risks

There are really no risks when it comes to teeth whitening. The most a client can experience is temporary tooth sensitivity or temporary gum sensitivity. Sensitivity is short term and will not last.
