Some are adventurous eaters who like to dye their hair with coffee, tea or even a good old cherry popsicle. Others may have a rebellious side because of certain medications. Yes, our teeth have their own personality!
Dental stains coloring
Yellow teeth and brown dental stains
Can be caused by certain dietary habits, such as eating colored foods or smoking. It can also be caused by excessive use of certain fluoride toothpastes or mouthwashes.
Black marks on teeth
Generally due to trauma. Not to be confused with natural tooth color, which may be genetically darker.
White spots on teeth
Known as "white spots", can be caused by enamel demineralization. Remineralization treatments combined with teeth whitening can even out tooth color.
Dental stains: classification, causes and remedies
Surface (extrinsic)
Causes: These stains form on the outside of the tooth enamel and are often caused by the consumption of certain foods and beverages, such as coffee, tea, red wine, berries and tobacco.
Treatment: They are usually superficial and can be easily removed with the Airflow during a dental cleaning or "stain removal" treatment.
Sub-surface (intrinsic)
Causes: These stains occur inside the tooth, usually as a result of excessive exposure to fluoride during childhood, the use of certain antibiotics or exposure to excess fluoride in drinking water (dental fluorosis).
Treatment: Intrinsic stains may require teeth whitening treatments or other aesthetic procedures.
Stains caused by trauma
Causes: Dental trauma can cause tooth discoloration. A tooth may become darker (enamel hypoplasia) in response to impact or damage.
Treatment: In such cases, internal bleaching or restoration options may be considered.
Dental Stains caused by disease
Causes: Certain diseases, such as amyloidosis (accumulation of abnormal substances in tissues) or certain metabolic disorders, can cause dental marks.
Treatment: Treatment will depend on the type of task and the underlying disease.
Drug-induced dental stains
Causes: Some drugs, especially antibiotics such as tetracycline, can cause intrinsic staining during tooth development in children. This can lead to mottled or ridged teeth.
Treatment: Dental whitening can be used to mitigate these stains.
Stains due to genetic factors :
Causes: In some cases, the natural color of teeth is genetically inherited. Some people may have naturally yellower or grayer teeth, regardless of their lifestyle.
Treatment: Dental whitening can help improve tooth color in these cases.
