Tooth discoloration can be caused by a variety of factors. One of the most common culprits of this is dark-colored beverages. If you are a daily tea, coffee, or soda drinker, you may notice that your smile has become discolored because of these beverages. To prevent this from happening, you can reduce your consumption or make sure to rinse your mouth after drinking them. Factors such as genetics and aging can affect the vibrancy of your smile, too. Some people genetically have a thicker enamel, which may make their teeth appear brighter

You may also feel motivated to take better care of your teeth if they look better. To maintain your results, make sure to practice a regular hygiene routine and visit your dentist every six months.
