There are some things you can do proactively and reactively to improve the quality of your smile and the whiteness of your teeth. Today, we bring you five of our best tips.
1 – Cut Back on Foods and Beverages That Are Known to Stain Teeth
Generally speaking, if it can stain your clothes, it can stain your teeth. This one isn’t easy, but if you want whiter teeth, consider avoiding:
- Coffee, tea, and wine. The tannins in your favorite beverages can stain and discolor teeth.
- Acidic foods. Lemons and tomatoes are healthy for your body, but the acid in them can erode enamel and expose the yellow-colored dentin underneath.
- Sugary foods and drinks. Sugar feeds bacteria on your teeth, which can cause tooth decay. That tooth decay can cause discoloration.
- Richly pigmented fruits like blackberries and pomegranate.
