What causes yellow teeth?
The main factors that cause yellow discoloration are of course primarily the tea and coffee we consume. Aside from this smoking cigarettes are also harmful to your health and teeth. Red wine and some food coloring materials used on other foods are also causing destruction of a great scale on our teeth.
Unfortunately getting old is another factor that causes yellower teeth. As we age our teeth become yellower, cracks and its surface gets shaggier and teeth gets easier to stain as it becomes shaggier. If teeth whitening is insufficient using porcelain lamina method special porcelain leafs can be used to stick on teeth or the bonding application process can also help us along with teeth whitening. The second method of teeth whitening is home bleaching. In home bleaching process doctor first needs to examine the patient to evaluate whether the person is suitable for teeth whitening and he will complete the evaluation in the same session. Measurements are taken from the person which are then used to create a plaque that perfectly fits the patient’s mouth, teeth and gum. The patient applies the whitening agent that is recommended by the doctor to the plaque. Thanks to the specially made plaques that are used in home bleaching the doctor describes to the patient how to use it in detail. Using the prepared plaque for approximately 3-4 hours a day the teeth become whiter.
There isn’t much difference between home bleaching and In-office bleaching systems. There are only timing differences. Which is why the patient needs to decide which method to use for teeth whitening. For teeth whitening products like baking soda or bleach as well as using any unknown methods you hear must not be used. Because while the tooth enamel is a very special and a strong tissue it can experience abrasion. Enamel is a layer that covers the teeth’s surface and there is a weaker layer called the dentin layer. Upon reaching the dentin layer sensitivity and problems start. This is why it’s important to protect tooth enamel and you should never use any product other than the material that your dentist uses to whiten your teeth for your own health.
