If you continue to see dental discoloration as a concern, even after attempting to brighten teeth with store-bought whitening agents, you may want to bring the matter up with your dentist. Problems with teeth stains can be frustrating for several reasons. It can be hard to completely avoid products that leave stains behind, and it can be surprisingly difficult to remove them if you are trying to address the problem on your own. At our Rochester, MN dentist’s office, we can help you take on stubborn stains through professional teeth whitening so that you feel a renewed confidence in your smile. For people who have issues with discoloration caused by something other than teeth stains, we can find an alternative treatment approach that can help.
1. Many Popular Food And Drink Choices Can Leave Stains On Our Enamel
Many popular items that people eat and drink can leave stains behind on teeth. Caffeinated beverages like coffee, tea, and sodas all have the potential to cause stains. Red wine can be an issue as well. If you have a fondness for dark or color-rich foods and drinks, it can be difficult to fully protect yourself from discoloration. Tobacco products can also cause stains to form.
2. Addressing Stains Below The Surface Of Your Enamel Can Be Difficult
Whitening toothpastes and store bought whitening agents can help you remove the stains that might have recently gathered on your smile. Unfortunately, they can be less useful against stains that have settled into deeper layers, so the results they offer may disappoint you. Fortunately, the professional whitening agents offered at our office are capable of reaching and addressing those harder-to-reach stains.
3. You May Have Internal Tooth Issues That Affect The Color Of Your Smile
Not everyone with dental discoloration is chiefly concerned with teeth stains. Sometimes, discoloration occurs because of a certain medication a person has taken. It can also occur after a physical injury, or due to enamel erosion. If any of these issues affect the way you look, there are other cosmetic dental procedures that can effectively brighten your smile. We can provide porcelain veneers to help you hide discoloration, or we can target flawed teeth with a tooth bonding procedure.
