What Causes Tooth Stains and How to Get Rid of Them

Normal wear and tear of teeth as well as aging can have an impact on the color and shape of your teeth. This is why it’s important to visit your dentist regularly in order to be sure that your teeth and gums are healthy. Patients that are diligently caring for their teeth by brushing and flossing regularly but are still experiencing tooth discoloration or stains are generally candidates for cosmetic dentistry. Simple cosmetic procedures like teeth whitening, bonding, veneers, or a combination of these can have a life-changing effect. These procedures can restore your smile and your confidence!

Rinsing with water after your morning cup of coffee, for instance, can help reduce coffee stains. Adding milk or creamer to your coffee (instead of having plain black coffee), can also reduce the tendency to stain. Please contact us for a consultation if you have stained teeth. We are happy to provide suggestions tailored to your diet and lifestyle designed to reduce the tendency of your teeth to pickup stains.

Our dental office also offers treatments that can help remove and treat discoloration and stains, such as:
