Apr
I go to the dentist each 6 months
Rarely have acidic drinks like coke
Use Listerine mouthwash twice a day
I don't drink nor smoke.
I only have 1 cup of tea a day
Floss each other day
But; I don't have an electrical toothbrush and use Colgate toothpaste, which is not good, apparently.
Answer:
First of all i wouldn’t advocate whiteining toothpaste. It has an ingredient in it that scratches the surface of the tooth making little little cravices for staining to get into.
It could be the mouth wash u are using. listerine is very strong and you may not need to use it. If you use it to remove the plaque building up you can simply use water and a pea size bit of toothpaste and swash it around your mouth. Its the movement you make that removes the plaque not the actual mouthrinse. If you use listerine because it makes your breath feel fresh why not chew sugar free gum? Try slicing out the listerine and see what happens.
If nothing does then it may be that your teeth are naturally that colour. teeth are not ment to be simon cowell white. They are metn to have a lilttle offish colour to them. If it really bothers you that much i would book an appointment with your dentist and talk to him re this. He might be able to make you some home whitening trays. These are clear rubbery molds of your teeth which you wear at night. All you’ve to do is place a drop of the bleach your dentist will spupply you with on the desired whitening area on your clear tray and place them in your mouth when you go to bed. The good thing about these is you can use them till you are at your desired shade and then put them away and when you feel you need to use them again just do the same all over again. Easy. You might feel that your teeth are more sensitive when using these trays and thats about the only downside.
Hope i have been of some help.
Answer:
i have the same problem.. it's because i have practically clear enamel instead of white enamel, maybe you're the same? in which case, there's no hope really because any stain removing or whitening products won't make your teeth white because they wern't white to start with. porcelean vaneers are amazing and can be made to look like your natural teeth if you don't want to change the shape.
if it's not your enamel, i advocate crest white strips, get them off ebay because you can get stronger ones from america.
Answer:
There are a variety of reasons why your teeth could be yellowing. If you're on certain types of medications, they could be discoloring your teeth. Root canals and other dental procedures can also cause discoloration. Heavily pigmented foods like cherries or blueberries can cause problems as well.

Answer:
Not all teeth are white and there are several things that can affect the colour of teeth. There are certain anti-biotics that, when taken before the permanent teeth have come through, will turn teeth green.
You might just have naturally yellower teeth than you would like.
Answer:
Did you know that some antibiotics and over the counter meds can cause discoloration of teeth? Unfortunately, we can inherit yellow teeth from our parents….in other words, sometimes, we just can't help it.
