Do you have discoloured or yellow teeth? Yellowing of teeth can be an issue for many people. This is because the enamel that protects the teeth thins over time and the dentin beneath the surface begins to show, giving your teeth a yellow appearance. It can make some people feel self-conscious about their appearance. Discolored teeth can drastically undermine a person's self-esteem. While a set of white teeth can make anyone look more handsome and healthy, Teeth stains can be superficial (extrinsic) or deep (intrinsic) (intrinsic).

Prevention

Here are a few ways to prevent your pearly-white teeth from turning yellow:

• Clean your teeth at least twice a day. This is the most essential step in establishing a good dental care routine.
• Floss at least once a day to remove plaque from areas where your toothbrush cannot reach.
• Wash your mouth with an antimicrobial mouthwash.
• After eating or drinking caffeinated beverages, rinse your mouth with water to eliminate any residual food or residue from your teeth. This will help prevent the development of stains and deterioration.
• Limit your consumption of coffee, tea, and other foods and beverages that may discolour your teeth.
• See your dentist every six months for a dental cleaning.
