What Causes Tooth Discoloration?

There are several common reasons for tooth discoloration including:

1) Lack of a regular dental hygiene routine coupled with inadequate brushing and flossing can result in staining and cavities

2) Food and drink stains such as coffee, soda, wine and tea can leave your teeth dull and dark

3) Some medication such as Tetracycline and doxycycline can cause tooth darkening as well

4) Chewing tobacco and cigarette smoking often cause stubborn brown stains on your teeth

5) Aging - It's natural for our teeth to become discolored over time because of age
