Brilio.net - Teeth are a part of the mouth that is susceptible to discoloration. This happens due to various bad habits such as smoking and rarely brushing your teeth. Apart from that, it turns out there are other factors that can also change the color of your teeth so they appear yellow. One of them is the food and drinks consumed daily. Some types of food contain natural colors that can stick to tooth enamel.
Drinks such as tea and coffee contain tannin pigments which can stick to the surface of the teeth and cause yellow or brown stains. Then, foods made from turmeric, such as curry, can leave plaque behind. Several types of fruit, namely blueberries and blackberries, contain anthocyanins which affect color changes.
Meanwhile, foods and drinks with a high content of fatty acids can damage enamel, making teeth prone to plaque buildup. So, the food and drinks in question are citrus fruits and fizzy drinks.
Not only that, changes in tooth color can also be caused by lack of nutrition, certain diseases, and aging factors. The reason is that aging factors can make tooth enamel thin and make them appear more yellow.
So that yellow stains fade and your teeth become bright again, you need to undergo treatment. No need to use salt and lemon, you can treat yellow stains with alternative natural ingredients, namely neem leaves. This natural ingredient contains antibacterial, antifungal and anti-inflammatory properties. All of these ingredients can help reduce plaque or yellow stains and prevent tartar formation. Even the anti-inflammatory properties in these leaves can reduce inflammation.
