Expert: Dr. Puneet Ahuja, Dental-Oral and Maxilofacial Surgeon, Shri Balaji Action Medical Institute, Delhi
Question- Why do teeth become yellow or bad?
answer- The outer layer of our teeth is called enamel. It is very strong, but it contains microscopic pores. When we drink tea, coffee, cold drinks or superior drinks, their colors and stains start accumulating slowly in these holes. This is the reason that over time the color of the teeth starts to fade and they start to look yellow or bad. Apart from this, there are some other reasons, see it in the graphic below-
Let’s understand these points in detail.
Do not brush properly
If you do not brush and floss rightly twice a day, then a sticky layer (plaque) freezes on the teeth. Over time, this layer becomes tight and becomes tartar. This tartter catches the color and bacteria of the food, causing the teeth to turn yellow.
Tea-coffee and sugar drinks
Tea, coffee, coke, wine and some sports drinks contain artificial colors and acids. They gradually accumulate in the upper layer of teeth and make the teeth yellow. If they are consumed for a long time and the cleanliness is not properly, then the stains are sure.
Smoking
Cigarettes and tobacco contain nicotine, which releases yellow or brown stains on the teeth. By smoking for a long time, these stains become deeper and can reach the inside of the upper layer of teeth.
Age and genetics causes
Sometimes the yellow color of teeth is genetic. If parents have yellow teeth, children can also be. Apart from this, the enamel wears on aging and the yellow layer (dentin) begins to look more.
Impact of some medicines
Some antibiotic drugs, such as tetracycline or oxytate, can change their color if they are given at the time of formation of children. The teeth start appearing gray or yellow.
Injury or accident
If the tooth or mouth is hurt, the surface of the tooth may break or the inner part may be damaged. This can change the color of the tooth.
Question- Are yellow teeth more healthy than white teeth?
answer- Dr. Puneet Ahuja says that it cannot be said by seeing the color of teeth whether the teeth are healthy or not. The real thing is whether the teeth are strong or not and how much you take care of oral hygiene. Understand this from these pointers-
Fading of teeth
If the top layer of teeth is safe, then light yellow teeth are as strong as white teeth. Many times very white teeth are just good in appearance, but they can have cavity or bacteria.
Sensitivity (tingling)
Light yellow teeth usually have less sensitivity. Until the enamel is worn out. On the other hand, the enamel of very white teeth (especially bleached) may be thin, which can begin to feel cold.
Possibility of stains
If oral hygiene is not good then stains on yellow teeth start appearing quickly. Although white teeth can also be stained, they are initially less visible and later start appearing clean.
Treatment whiteness
Most of the teeth of people are naturally mild yellow and this is normal. Very white teeth are usually whitewashed or white with other treatment, which are not natural. This can damage the inament over time.
Question- Is it right to white to teeth with home remedies?
answer- Home remedies such as baking soda, lemon juice or activated charcoal attempts to show the teeth clean and white, but this method is not always safe. These things contain sharp acids or rough particles, which can gradually wear the upper layer of teeth. It is necessary to consult a doctor while taking such measures.
Question- Is it possible to keep teeth always white?
answer- It is not always possible to keep teeth completely white, because over time our food, age, lifestyle and habits affect the color of teeth.
However, if you adopt a good oral hygiene daily, such as brushing, flossing, avoiding sugar drinks and getting dental cleaning from time to time, then the teeth can be maintained for a long time clean, healthy and shiny.
Question- The more the teeth are white, the more clean and healthy?
answer- This is a common myth. White teeth are always healthy or clean, it is not necessary. In fact, the measure of teeth health is determined by their cleanliness, strength and total hygiene of the mouth, not just with color. So it is important that we not only run after whiteness, but pay attention to the correct care and cleanliness of the teeth.
Question- Is regular dental cleaning necessary?
answer- Yes, it is very important to clean teeth in a professional manner from time to time. This has many advantages. Such as-
- The risk of diseases of teeth and gums is low.
- Breathing smell provides relief.
- Teeth remain healthy for a long time.
Dental cleaning is usually enough every 6 months. If there is a problem of gums or oral health is already weak then this interval can also be reduced according to the advice of a doctor.
