DISCOLOURED TEETH

There are a range of causes of discoloured teeth including (most commonly) from food and drink such as wine, tea, coffee and soft drinks (particularly cola drinks). Smoking is another cause of stained teeth.

Teeth may also be stained from internal damage from trauma, genetic conditions, or exposure to certain antibiotics or excessive fluoride in childhood.  Fortunately, there are a range of solutions to give you a beautiful whiter smile. These include:

• Whitening – at Marketfair Dentalcare, we have in-chair and take home teeth whitening options to give you a fresher, whiter smile. The in-chair whitening provides a faster result (your teeth are visibly whiter after one treatment). The take home whitening allows you to complete the treatment in the comfort of your own home over around a 2 week period and provides a more affordable option.
• Veneers – for a stain that is harder to fix, dental veneers may be the best option. These thin ceramic shells sit over the top of your existing teeth and are colour matched to surrounding teeth. In addition to covering up stains, veneers can also provide a great solution for teeth that are chipped or crooked

In all things, we want to help you understand which option is best for your teeth. Call (02) 4620 0800 NOW to make an appointment.
