Teeth Whitening 

More and more People are increasingly in pursuit of the perfect teeth whitening, and with this the cosmetic dentistry industry is growing and changing to accommodate these demands. As people live longer, there is more wear and tear on the teeth, more time for stains to accumulate, and for the effects of a less than perfect lifestyle to be revealed in a smile. Having whiter teeth is now a new measure of youth.

There are some over-the-counter teeth whitening regiments, such as whitening toothpastes and gels. However these are only minimally effective and are able to target only a small variety of stains. Teeth become more porous as you age, so they actually absorb more stains as you grow older. Things like whitening toothpastes have difficulty removing the full spectrum of stains inflicted by time, particularly brown or gray stains.

Teeth are comprised of an outside layer of enamel, which is a translucent white color, and underneath a layer called dentin, which is darker in color. Tooth enamel naturally wears away as you get older. As enamel wears away, the darker layer of dentin is more visible, which causes teeth to look more yellowed. Certain foods such as coffee, red wine, berries, soy sauce and of course tobacco are notorious for staining teeth. The combination of further exposed dentin and contact over time with food-based staining agents cause increasingly discolored teeth as we age.

Not all tooth stains are caused by external factors; some stains occur from use of certain medications, traumatic injuries or fluorosis, which originate internally from the tooth. These stains cannot be treated, reversed or removed with topical, or over the counter bleaching and whitening agents.
Daily brushing and flossing can help keep your teeth white only to a certain extent. There are stains that penetrate the layers of your teeth, and are deeper than brushing and flossing alone can reach.
