How long will it take to make my teeth back to a nicer colour?!
Question: How long will it take to make my teeth back to a nicer colour.?
i used to have reeeally nice teeth, even about 6 months ago.. now ive noticed one or two teeth have got a bit discoloured, and behind the front teeth on the bottom there's black marks..
i *do* drink a lot of tea and smoke occasionally and have sugar, so i know the problem, and im going to stop drinking tea more than once a day and cut down the smoking and sugar a lot..
assuming i dont have other problems like cavities or whatnot, (im going to the dentist to make sure though) if i brush very thoroughly twice a day, floss every 2 days, and brush with Pearl drops whitening toothpaste, how long before im back to having nice teeth.?Health Question & Answer

Answers:
The black marks are most likely scale, i get it from drinking tea and smoking, the dentist can painlessly remove it and polish any other staining off.. Well worth it, i have mine done every 6 months.. if you get this done they will immediately be clean.. If not the stained scale will stay and will not go away with any amount of brushing.. After you have had them cleaned up at the dentist, buy some smokers toothpaste or powder, use that first (as it can make your mouth feel a bit gritty)then clean your teeth as normal with your prefered toothpaste.. That way you will be clening them thouroughly..Health Question & Answer

You do NOT have to give up your tea, coffee, or cigs.. BriteSmile, Professional Teeth Whitening offers a product called the "Whitening Pen.." You apply that to your teeth 2 days a day for 2 weeks straight and you can get rid of those black marks.. When those marks are gone, don't disregard the pen.. You can continue to use it right after you eat or drink anything staining or even have a cigarette.. The pen erases the anything before it can create the stain.. Say goodbye to those icky black marks!
also, stay away from any toothpaste that has any dyes in it.. Even if it says it's a "whitener".. As long as it has color in it, it is NOT helping your tooth.. (remember, it takes dyes to make it that color.... those dyes are seeping into the pores of your teeth.. Yes, teeth do have pores..)
It is important to floss everyday.... so yep.... don't change that.. :)
Blah.... if you're just not into waiting for 2 weeks to get rid of the stain, consider getting the BriteSmile 1 hour whitening treatment..

STAY AWAY FROM GRITTY TOOTH PASTES! THEY ARE NOT CLEANING YOUR TEETH, THEY ARE ACTUALLY SCRATCHING YOUR ENAMEL AND WILL CAUSE SENSITIVITY IN THE LONG RUN..

I am 46.. I drink tea twice a day and I smoke.. My teeth never discolored in just a few spots.. Normally it is an all over discoloration.. You may be having enamel issues so you really do need to see the dentist.. Your body may be lacking calcium.. I used Opalessence here in the USA which I get from the dentist, you have to have a custom tray made to fit your teeth with it by the dentist.. Stuff works great and i found the gel cheap on Ebay when i needed a refill..
