Not Just Coffee: What Other Products Harm Your Snow-White Smile
01.11.2024 10:02
As is known, tooth enamel changes color due to the effects of coffee and nicotine.
But in fact, there are many more products that are detrimental to the white color of teeth.
White wine
If the problem that arises with teeth after drinking red wine is obvious, then with white wine things are a little different.
It turns out that the acidity of the drink affects the enamel, causing it to become more susceptible.
According to dentist Derek Chang, the "combo" of alcohol, sugar and acid causes teeth to become softer, which can't help but affect the color of your smile and your teeth's ability to resist the onslaught of bacteria.
Tomato sauce
Sauces that use tomatoes as a base cause yellowing of teeth.
The distinctive features of tomatoes are high acidity and pronounced pigmentation, which is why these products damage the protective layer of teeth and facilitate the penetration of color into the enamel.
Exotic spices
If you want your smile to stay snow-white, avoid curry and mixtures containing turmeric. Fillings and crowns are especially vulnerable to dyes.
