I have had excessive teeth staining (brown) for the past 4 yrs which requires that I have my teeth cleaned every 3-4 months. My dentist cannot quite figure it out. The worst staining is located on my bottom teeth in the front and especially behind the front bottom teeth. My dentist thinks I may have colored saliva, or he thinks it may be something in our water (well water). No one in my family has this problem. I do not smoke, I drink 3-4 glasses of red wine/week, I eat about 3 oz. chocolate every day and I drink 1 cup of coffee or 1 can of cola/day. Any ideas what this staining could be a result of?
Hello.thank you for sharing your problem with Chat Doctor. All three cola, coffee and red wine cause teeth staining. As your dentist said if your water contains excessive fluoride then it too can tooth staining. Try to avoid above beverages for three months we will get idea if stain was due to it. You also should brush your teeth properly with proper brushing technique. Including brushing back of your teeth. You can recons ult for further queries. Wish you good health.
