If you have been looking in the mirror lately and notice your teeth are not as white as you would like, you’re probably wondering what is causing your teeth to become stained or discolored. If so, the good news is that today’s teeth whitening procedures done by your dentist can greatly improve your teeth’s appearance. As to why your teeth are becoming stained or discolored, here are some of the most common reasons.
Coffee, Tea, and Wine
If you are like many people and simply can’t live without having that cup of coffee or tea or perhaps a glass of wine, there’s a good chance your favorite drinks are causing the stains you now notice on your teeth. While you don’t have to completely eliminate them from your life, limiting the amount of these drinks you have will help keep your teeth looking bright.
Smoking
Along with smoking being bad for so many areas of your health, it is also terrible for your teeth. If you smoke cigarettes on a daily basis, you are virtually guaranteed to have teeth that will be stained or discolored on a regular basis.
Medications
In some instances, certain medications you may be taking can lead to your teeth becoming discolored. Should you start to notice this as a side effect from the medication you are taking, talk to your doctor to see if another option is possible.
Aging
As we get older, the aging process takes a toll on many parts of our bodies, and our teeth are no exception. Thus, as you get older, don’t be surprised if your teeth start to look a little less bright.
