/350 Comments/in /by

Teeth don’t stay white forever, but watching your teeth become yellow or brown can be frustrating. Did you know that there are steps you could take to whiten your teeth again? As your dentist in Katy and Houston, TX, we can help you maintain healthy, white teeth. Here’s what you should know about why your teeth are becoming stained, and how you can fix the problem.

What Causes Teeth to Stain?

There are many things that can cause teeth to become stained including:

Foods and beverages. Acidic and dark-colored foods and beverages can stain your teeth, especially if you eat or drink them often. This is why coffee, tea and wine have such an effect: because people consume them on a regular basis.

Poor oral hygiene. Brushing and flossing regularly can help remove and keep away the plaque buildup that causes teeth to become stained. Seeing the dentist for exams and professional cleanings can help too.

Smoking. Smoking causes teeth to become discolored. At the same time, smoking can also impact your saliva production. Saliva helps clean your mouth, so if you have dry mouth due to smoking, your teeth may become even more discolored.

What Can I Do to Get Rid of Teeth Stains?

There are many things you can do to maintain white teeth.

  • Get your teeth professionally cleaned. See the dentist every 6 months for an exam and cleaning.
  • Get your teeth whitened. Ask your dentist about their professional teeth whitening services.
  • Stop smoking. Talk to your doctor to get help with smoking cessation.
  • Brush your teeth twice each day. Brush in the morning, and brush and floss at night.
