Stained and Discolored Teeth



Stained and discolored teeth are a common dental issue that affects many people. Surface-level staining is called extrinsic staining and occurs when pigmented particles from food and drinks like tea, coffee, red wine, or tobacco reside on your enamel. Poor oral hygiene practices can also lead to discoloration since plaque buildup on teeth attracts bacteria that produce acid, which erodes the enamel surface. Intrinsic staining happens inside your teeth — it could be due to an injury that damages a tooth's nerve endings, antibiotics like tetracycline used during pregnancy (in children), aging, and genetics.

Treatments To Get Rid of Stained Teeth

There are several treatments available to get rid of stained and discolored teeth. One option is teeth whitening, which involves using bleach or other chemicals to remove stains from the enamel of the teeth. This can be done in-office by a dentist or at home with an over-the-counter kit. Another treatment option is dental bonding, where tooth-colored resin is applied to the surface of the teeth and then hardened with a special light. This can help hide discoloration and improve the appearance of your smile. Porcelain veneers are also another popular option for those looking to brighten their smile.
