A little info on tooth discoloration for those who are interested. Consuming coffee, tea, and red wine may stain teeth, although tooth discoloration may also stem from to***co use, age, and trauma. Brushing, flossing, and regular dental visits can help with surface stains, but bleaching may be necessary to address deeper stains. When selecting an over-the-counter whitening product, Look for the ADA seal of acceptance. ADA spokesperson Dr. Ada Cooper advises consulting with a dentist before whitening teeth, since “tooth discoloration can be caused by cavities and other oral problems.” Of course, professionally made custom whitening systems made by your dentist offer much better and predictable results.
Look at MouthHealthy.org, ADA’s consumer website, for evidence-based information about teeth whitening. The ADA provides a complete list of toothpastes with the ADA Seal of Acceptance, including some with stain removal attributes. In addition, Crest 3D White Whitestrips Glamorous White have earned the ADA Seal of Acceptance.
