Secret behind that pearly bright confident smile

A lot of daily activities can have impact on your teeth and their color.

We can help you understand the reasons behind it.

And also help you to get that perfect confident smile.

Teeth stain for many reasons, including your food and drink choices, oral hygiene, and medication use. Teeth stains occur on the surface of the tooth or below the tooth enamel and some people develop both types of teeth stains.

 

Types of Tooth Discoloration (Stains)

Tooth discoloration can occur as a result of surface stains, due to actual changes in your tooth material, or because of a combination of both factors.

1. Extrinsic Teeth Stains: An extrinsic tooth stain is staining on the surface of the tooth. It occurs when stain particles, build-up in the film of protein that covers the tooth enamel. This type of tooth stain responds well to regular dental cleaning and brushing the teeth with whitening toothpaste.
   
2. 
   Intrinsic Teeth Stains: An intrinsic tooth stain is staining below the surface of the tooth. It occurs when stain-causing particles work through the exterior of the tooth and accumulate within the tooth enamel. Excessive fluoride use have been associated with intrinsic stains, especially in children. An intrinsic tooth stain is trickier to remove, but it can be done. An intrinsic tooth stain may require bleaching using professional or at-home chemical teeth-whitening products.
   
   
   
3. Age-Related Teeth Stains: Age-related teeth stains combine the results of both intrinsic and extrinsic tooth discoloration. Because the core tissue of your teeth, the dentin, naturally yellows over time, teeth discolor with age. As we age, the enamel that covers the tooth becomes thinner, allowing the dentin to show through.

Causes:

• Food and beverages
• Medications
• Tobacco products
• Diseases
• Injury
• Environment
• Age
• Antibiotics
• Preventions

 

Changing your life style can prevent you from teeth stains.

 

1. If you are a heavy coffee drinker or a heavy smoker try to reduce it or quit it altogether.
2. Improve your dental hygiene by brushing and flossing regularly can help you to clean the food which stuck in between your teeth.
3. Go for a dental checkup every 6 months.
4. Usage of proper brushing techniques and the avoidance of food as well as beverages which cause stains.
5. There are many home tooth whitening products to remove teeth stains on the market.
   
   
   
   

Are you considering teeth whitening to help reinvigorate a smile tainted by discoloration? Professional, in-office teeth whitening is the most popular cosmetic dental procedure in the world today. Unlike home-use systems that incorporate low-dose bleaching agents, in-office whitening takes place under carefully monitored conditions which allow for the safe, controlled, pain-free use of a relatively high concentration of bleaching gel – yielding results that are visible immediately.

 

Advantages

• Produces fastest results.
• This is the safest form of bleaching.
• Gum and tooth sensitivity (formerly drawbacks to in-office bleaching) are more controllable today due to thicker peroxide gels (that don’t soak into the teeth as much as previous gels) and the use of desensitizers such as potassium nitrate and fluoride.

Disadvantages

• More expensive than take-home alternatives.
• Results can be unpredictable, depending on factors such as age, heredity and the type of staining that is present.
• In-office bleaching is not a permanent solution. Shortly after treatment is completed, the teeth resume accumulating stains. Many dentists therefore recommend home maintenance follow-up with a lower-percentage bleach that can be kept on the teeth for longer periods of time.

Bad Breath? Tips to get rid of the problem.

Halitosis (bad breath) is an oral health problem where the main symptom is bad smelling breath. In most cases, finding the cause of the bad breath is the first step toward treating this preventable condition.

Causes:

1. Specific food
   
   
   
   
   
   
2. Tobacco and alcohol consumption
   
   
   
3. Poor dental hygiene
   
   
   
4. Dry mouth.
5. Medications: Some medications can indirectly produce bad breath by contributing to dry mouth. Others can be broken down in the body to release chemicals that can be carried on your breath.
6. Many diseases can causes halitosis: Seasonal allergies, Respiratory tract infections, post nasal drip, diabetes, Chronic acid reflux, Chronic lung infection, Gastrointestinal issues, Liver and kidney diseases.

Treatment:

To reduce bad breath, consistently practice good oral hygiene. Further treatment for bad breath can vary, depending on the cause. If your bad breath is thought to be caused by an underlying health condition, your dentist will likely refer you to your general physician.

For causes related to oral health, your dentist will work with you to help you better control that condition. Dental measures may include:

·         Mouth rinses and toothpastes. If your bad breath is due to a buildup of bacteria (plaque) on your teeth, your dentist may recommend a mouth rinse that kills the bacteria. Your dentist may also recommend a toothpaste that contains an antibacterial agent to kill the bacteria that cause plaque buildup.

·         Treatment of dental disease. If you have gum disease, you may be referred to a gum specialist. Gum disease can cause gums to pull away from your teeth, leaving deep pockets that fill with odor-causing bacteria. Sometimes only professional cleaning removes these bacteria. Your dentist might also recommend replacing faulty tooth restorations, a breeding ground for bacteria.

• Do Brush And Floss – Plaque is a sticky film that forms on your teeth and accumulates microorganisms that produce bad breath. Food that has been trapped adds to the situation. At least twice a day, brush your teeth and floss at least once. If you’re worried about your breathing, do both more frequently. But be careful not to overdo it. Brushing your teeth too forcefully can wear them down and leave them vulnerable to decay.
  
  
  

• It Is Important To Rinse Your Mouth – Aside from refreshing your breath, mouthwash also provides additional protection by removing microorganisms. The taste of fresh mint might make you feel fantastic. However, make certain that the mouthwash you select destroys the microorganisms that cause bad breath. Don’t simply mask the odor. Stop bad breath at its root by rinsing with a decent mouthwash on a daily basis. Swishing your mouth with plain water after eating might also aid your breath. It can remove food particles caught between your teeth.

• Do Scrape Your Tongue – The natural coating that grows on your tongue can serve as a breeding ground for stinky bacteria. Brush your tongue gently with your toothbrush to get rid of them. If your brush is too big to reach the back of your tongue comfortably, use a scraper.
  
  
  

• No Intake Of Food That Sours Your Breath – The compounds that create their foul odors enter your circulation and travel to your lungs, where they are exhaled. What is the most effective method of resolving the issue? Don’t consume them, or at the very least stay away from them before going to work or seeing friends.

• Give Up The Tobacco Habit – Smoking can harm your gums, discolor your teeth, and give you poor breath, in addition to causing cancer. Nicotine patches sold over-the-counter can help you control your cravings. Make an appointment with your doctor to discuss stop-smoking programs or prescription drugs that can help you quit smoking for good if you need it.
  
  
  

• It Is Important To Stay Hydrated – A dry mouth can also be the reason for bad breath. Therefore, make sure that you drink an adequate amount of water on a regular basis. This will lead to the proper flow of saliva into your mouth. 

• Do Consult Your Dentist – If adopting these measures is not yielding any fruitful results, do not hesitate to consult the dentist.
