Each
year millions of dollars are spent in the cosmetic industry. In a collective amount,
a large portion is accounted for money spent by people to get their teeth
whitened. Individuals with appearance-oriented jobs consider this a need based
step to get ahead in their careers by making a good impression with a confident
smile. However, according to dental care experts Dr. Allen
Yekta Nazeri, teeth whitening do not need one to spend a whole lot of
money.
‘Smart
spend on your teeth’ a motto advertised by renowned Doctor of Dental Surgery
(DDS), Dr. Allen Nazeri. You
can save a lot of money if you are aware of the reason of excess yellowish hue
on your teeth. Once you are aware of the reasons, preventive measures will
become naturally evident.
Here
are some common reasons why your teeth are so yellow:
Negligence
in Dental Hygiene: If you aren’t brushing your teeth
everyday at least twice, you might be harboring harmful anomalies such as
plaque which is one the most prominent reasons for yellow teeth. Besides,
regular brush, flossing them once a day is also helpful in preventing plaque
formation. If you fail to brush, floss and mouthwash on everyday plaque can
build up particularly in the gum margins. Plaque takes less than a day or two
harden into tartar, a yellowish substance that can only be removed by your
dentist.
Smoking:
Those who smoke everyday must have noticed patches of yellow or brownish stains
appear on your teeth, which simply refuse to go with normal brush and
mouthwash. These yellow stains are a result of nicotine and tar found in
tobacco products. Therefore, when the consumption of these products is at a
high rate, simultaneously the rate of yellowness in your teeth will be faster.
The
Age Factor: It’s a sad fact that people who are
younger today have whiter and healthier teeth than the older generation. However,
this is rapidly changing with hanging lifestyles, particularly eating habits. With
age, the layer of enamel protecting our teeth tends to become thinner as it is
simply worn away, exposing the dentin color underneath. When you compare the
teeth of an old person with that of a young individual, you’ll notice that
teeth of the former look more or less translucent or almost blue or grey in
color. This is because of gradual thinning of the tooth enamel.
Other
factors do contribute to increasing yellowness of teeth; some are natural
factors, while others can be checked through a healthy lifestyle. For the best
dental care or teeth whitening treatment, there is no one better than Dr. Nazeri.
