Why Are My Teeth Brown ?

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

MEET DR. NADIM MAJID & THE LIFESTYLE DENTAL TEAM

Dr. Nadim Majid qualified from Liverpool Dental school in 2001 and since then has worked in Lancashire for a number of years. He decided to undertake a career in dentistry as he found it was a good mix of science and art and also gave him the ability to help people and make a difference for them.

This really hit home when he worked in a nursing home for a short time and actually saw the impact upon the health and well being of patients whom had lost their teeth the impact was significant on the general health and well being and this is something Dr. Majid wanted to make sure he helped others avoid.

Dr. Majid is trained in hypnosis, sedation for nervous people, dental implants as well as braces. He lives in Lancashire with his two children (twins) and his wife who is a teacher.
