Common Obstacles to a Healthy, Whiter Smile
Everyone wants a whiter smile, but some obstacles can keep you from that smile. Your teeth can be darkened and discolored in many ways, such as:
Poor Dental Habits
Poor dental habits such as not brushing or flossing can lead to discolored teeth.
Dark Colored Foods or Drinks
Things like soda, coffee and tea can discolor and stain your teeth.
Tobacco Use
Smoking of any kind of tobacco will lead to discolored and stained teeth, even despite brushing!
Certain Medications
Mouth rinses and washes containing chlorhexidine and cetylpyridinium chloride can also stain teeth. Antihistamines (like Benadryl®), antipsychotic drugs, and antihypertensive medications also can cause teeth discoloration.
Aging
Most commonly, tooth darkening occurs as a natural effect of aging. As we get older, the outer hard tissue covering our teeth, called enamel, wears away and exposes the darker dentin beneath it.
