Teeth stain removal
As teeth are white it is all too easy to visibly stain them, especially if you smoke or drink a lot of coffee or wine. Fortunately our dental practitioners will be able to restore their natural colour with a good clean to remove surface staining.
We all want to show the world our whitest, brightest smile, and stain removal treatments are key to keeping your teeth looking their best.
What causes stains?
There are a number of factors that can cause staining. Antibiotics, poor dental hygiene and overall health problems, such as diabetes, can all affect the appearance of your teeth. Teeth may also change colour as you get older and the enamel naturally thins.
Your enamel also comes into contact with everything you eat and drink. Tea, coffee, red wine, spicy foods and tobacco are all things that can contribute to visible discolouration. A cleaning and polishing routine with your local Granville Dental & Implant Clinic hygienist will help professionally brighten the appearance of your smile.
Our Granville Dental & Implant Clinic hygienist can help advise on the best way to keep your smile as white as possible, whether through changes to your daily routine or treatments.
How do you remove stains?
Our hygienists will provide a deep clean and polish, thoroughly removing any plaque and leaving your teeth stain free and fresh feeling. We use an air-polishing system, using water and baking soda, gently removes plaque and visible surface stains. Should your dental hygienist recommend it, fluoride can be added to give your teeth an extra layer of protection.
How often should I visit for stain removal?
How often you visit your local Granville Dental & Implant Clinic hygienist to remove stains depends on the condition of your teeth. Making an appointment to have your teeth professionally cleaned is an important part of your overall dental hygiene routine, so it’s advisable to visit at least once a year. Your dentist and hygienist will work with you to advise on treatments, the frequency of your appointments, and offer guidance on keeping your teeth stain free.
