  3. Common Causes of Tooth Discoloration Lifestyle Factors Age-Related Changes Medications Consuming stain-inducing foods and beverages, such as coffee, tea, red wine, and berries, can lead to discoloration. Tobacco use, both smoking and chewing, is a major contributor to tooth staining. As we age, the outer layer of our teeth, called enamel, thins, making the underlying dentin, which is naturally yellow, more visible. Certain medications, such as antibiotics and antihistamines, can cause tooth discoloration as a side effect.

  4. Professional Teeth Whitening Treatments In-Office Whitening Laser Whitening This involves applying a high-concentration peroxide gel to your teeth and activating it with a special light. Results are typically seen in one appointment. A laser is used to activate the peroxide gel, accelerating the whitening process. Laser whitening is typically more expensive than traditional in-office whitening. Custom Trays The dentist takes impressions of your teeth to create custom trays that hold the whitening gel. These trays are worn for several hours a day, usually for a week or two.

  5. At-Home Teeth Whitening Options Over-the-Counter Whitening Strips These strips are pre-filled with a peroxide gel and are placed directly on the teeth for a specified period. Whitening Toothpastes and Mouthwashes These products contain mild abrasives and whitening agents that can help remove surface stains and brighten teeth gradually. Whitening Pens These pens are a convenient and portable option for whitening teeth on the go. They contain a peroxide gel that is applied directly to the teeth.

  6. Preparing for Teeth Whitening Consultation with Dentist 1 Discuss your goals, concerns, and medical history to ensure you're a suitable candidate for teeth whitening. Professional Cleaning 2 Get your teeth cleaned to remove plaque and tartar, allowing the whitening agent to work more effectively. Home Preparation 3 Avoid consuming staining foods and beverages for a few days before the procedure. This helps prevent further discoloration and allows for better whitening results.

  7. Maintaining Whitened Teeth Brush Regularly Floss Daily Brush your teeth twice a day with a fluoride toothpaste to remove plaque and food debris. Use a soft-bristled toothbrush and gentle circular motions. Flossing helps remove food particles and plaque from between teeth, where brushing can't reach. This contributes to overall oral health and prevents staining. Use Mouthwash Drink Water Mouthwash can help freshen breath, kill bacteria, and prevent plaque buildup. Choose a mouthwash that is designed to fight stains and maintain tooth whiteness. Water helps rinse away food particles and neutralize acids in your mouth, which can contribute to tooth discoloration.

  8. Teeth Whitening Aftercare and Tips Avoid Staining Foods Limit consumption of coffee, tea, red wine, berries, and other foods and beverages known to stain teeth. Use a Straw When drinking dark-colored beverages, use a straw to minimize contact with your teeth. Regular Cleanings Schedule regular dental checkups and cleanings to remove plaque and tartar buildup. Contact us: 718-539-4465 Address:140-31 Cherry Avenue.
