Why Are My Teeth Brown ?

Monday, June 22nd, 2009

This is a question I often get asked along side why are my teeth stained?

Well here is a list of a few of the likely causes of  extrinsic staining (staining on the enamel surface)

1, Coffee - yes that  is true coffee in excess can cause brown stains on teeth.

2, Tea the nations favorite even as a council the tea council

3, Smoking – well this one is commonly knownif your looking to quit then have a look at the quit site

4, Red wine – remember the song

5, Curries have a look at the curry house for all the different varieties

6, long term antiobiotics – this is a strange one but antiobiotics and change the flora in your mouth (chnage the balance of bacteria) causing some bacteria to poliferate and these then go on to leave a dark sticky black pigment on the teeth

So am I saying don’t do any of the above .   Well everything must be in moderation (apart from the smoking) and good tooth brushing and regular dental visits should ensure that staining is dealt with early on. This is not a complete list

soon will post about intrinsic staining and also how staining can be removed


“I immediately liked the approach , especially as i had a fear of dentists.”

“I immediately liked the approach , especially as i had a fear of dentists.”

I found out about Lifestyle Dental through the internet. I thought the website was very impressive and decided to come in for a chat with Nadim. I immediately liked the approach , especially as I had a fear of dentists. Nadim went through all the options and recommended a solution to my problem of two missing teeth. After agreeing the price estimate, which was very reasonable. We embarked upon a 3 month plan. The results have been more than I could have hoped for and have made an enormous difference to me both personally and professionally, which is very important to me as at work I have to interact with people. I also received excellent advice about maintenance of the work and a plan has been devised to look after everything afterwards. I have no hesitation to recommend Lifestyle Dental and the Team to anyone looking for a cost effective solution to getting your smile back

The food and drink you consume stains your teeth, smoking also stains your teeth and makes the natural white shade of the teeth darker and they appear yellow. Whitening teeth is very simple and is a successful method of lightening the teeth, Giving you a brighter whiter smile  the whiteness will vary between each patient and how stained the teeth are to begin with, different processes’ of bleaching can also be used to increase the final result. 

Lifestyle Teeth Whitening Solution is a combination of treatments, you will have an initial consultation and then be given a two week home treatment, once you have completed your home treatment you will need to visit the clinic for a one hour consultation with a dentist, enlighten teeth whitening works by increasing the tooth’s permeability to oxygen – this breaks down stain molecules. 

Also offered at Lifestyle Dental, is a one-hour teeth whitening treatment, this is a powerful treatment and can lighten you teeth up to seven shades in just one hour. We are very careful with this procedure and your teeth and gums are covered whilst a special gel is applied to your teeth, the gel is then activated by a special light, causing the gel to penetrate your teeth that breaks up stains and discoloration. 

The final option we offer for whitening is the at home treatment, we will take a mould of your teeth and create a custom-made mouth tray from this mould, we will then show you how to add the gel to the mouth tray which needs to be worn for a short time in the day or whilst you are asleep, the results from at home whitening are see after two weeks.
