Causes of Yellow Teeth

Yellow teeth can result from various factors such as diet, habits, oral hygiene, and ageing. Here are details about what can make your teeth yellow or lose its whiteness.

• Many everyday foods contain chromomeric ingredients used for colouring, while drinks like tea, coffee, wine, and soft drinks can stain teeth due to colour impurities. Foods with artificial coloring, like soy sauce and curry, can also contribute to staining.
• Smoking tobacco is not only harmful but can lead to permanent tooth discolouration. In certain communities, chewing betel nuts is a common habit that heavily stains teeth.
• Poor dental hygiene is another significant cause, as neglecting oral care leads to plaque and calculus buildup, resulting in teeth staining over time. Ageing can also play a role, as the enamel layer wears down with age, exposing the yellowish dentin layer underneath. Additionally, the formation of secondary dentin can darken natural teeth.
• Oral diseases such as cavities, non-vital teeth, or heavy fillings can cause teeth discolouration. Medical conditions requiring chemotherapy or radiation therapy can reduce saliva flow, leading to dry mouth and enamel decay. Fluoride contamination (fluorosis) and certain antibiotics like Tetracycline are known to cause permanent staining on teeth.

Before undergoing teeth whitening treatments, it's essential to diagnose the cause of yellow teeth. It is crucial for ensuring the success of the treatment. The good news is that there are various tooth-whitening products and clinical methods that can effectively address many of these issues, helping to restore the brightness of your smile.

How does it work?

• During professional teeth whitening, a specially formulated whitening solution or gel is applied to your teeth. This solution contains active bleaching agents like hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide, which work to break down and remove stains, leaving your teeth looking brighter and whiter.

Teeth Whitening Procedure

• At GMDC, we prioritize your dental health and well-being. That's why we always begin our teeth whitening process with a thorough oral examination to ensure it's suitable for you. During this examination, our Teeth Whitening Specialist checks for any dental issues that may interfere with the whitening process, such as gum disease or tooth decay.
• Once we confirm that your teeth are healthy, we proceed with the whitening process. To begin, we apply a protective gel to your gums. This gel safeguards your gums by creating a barrier between them and the bleaching gel that we will apply to your teeth.
• Next, we apply a bleaching gel to your teeth. This gel contains a high concentration of hydrogen peroxide, which is an active ingredient that breaks down stains and discolouration on your teeth. To speed up the whitening process, we may utilize a laser or lamp that emits cool, intense UV light. This light activates the bleaching gel and speeds up the whitening process.
• The bleaching gel remains on your teeth for approximately 15 minutes. During this time, you can relax in our comfortable office while the gel works its magic. We will repeat this cycle a few more times during a single session, completing the process in less than an hour.
• After the treatment, you'll notice a remarkable improvement in the whiteness of your teeth. Your teeth will be several shades brighter and look healthier overall. You'll leave our office feeling more confident and prouder of your beautiful white smile.

• First, we will make custom-fitted dental trays that will fit your teeth perfectly and prevent the whitening agent from leaking onto your gums and causing irritation.
• We will guide you through the process of applying a small amount of bleaching agent to the tray and wearing it on your teeth. These trays can be worn for up to four hours daily for one to two weeks. It helps maintain the brightness of your smile between professional whitening sessions.
