Is your lifestyle causing your teeth to discolor?

THIỆN NHÂN (THEO onlymyhealth) |

Your lifestyle can affect the color of your teeth and there are several important factors related to daily habits or dietary choices.

Food and Beverage

Certain foods and drinks can stain or discolor teeth. Things like coffee, tea, red wine, spices like curry, and foods that contain a lot of natural and artificial colors can cause stains on teeth.

Use of tobacco

Nicotine and tar in cigarettes can adhere to tooth enamel, causing yellow or brown stains.

Poor oral hygiene

Not brushing regularly or not flossing can cause plaque and bacteria to build up on your teeth, leading to tooth discoloration.

Use of drugs

Certain medications such as antibiotics, blood pressure medications, or drugs containing tetracycline can cause tooth discoloration. In addition, the use of birth control pills or other medications can also affect tooth color.

Aging

As we age, the natural enamel layer can thin, exposing the dentin layer underneath the enamel and causing teeth to become discolored.

Acidity and tooth enamel erosion

Acid reflux can completely erode tooth enamel, exposing the dentin and causing discoloration. People who regularly experience acid reflux should be especially careful about their oral health.

Too much fluoride

Overuse of fluoride products can lead to fluorosis, which causes white spots and enamel damage that makes teeth more susceptible to yellowing.

Environmental pollution

Pollutants, especially airborne toxins like dioxins, can deposit on teeth, forming a yellow-brown layer that discolors teeth.

Nighttime habits and dark chocolate

Even small habits, like eating dark chocolate before bed, can contribute to yellowing.
