What causes stained teeth?

The main reason behind stained teeth is improper brushing of teeth. Sometimes, even after brushing twice a day, the teeth look yellowish or have stains! It might be because of the improper brushing technique. If you do not follow the proper way to brush your teeth, you can get stains. Stains can also be present on our teeth due to the food we eat or maybe the water we use. Tea, coffee, cigarette smoking, and water with a large amount of iron are the main reasons for stained teeth. Now, whatever the reason, there is no need to worry. We are there to clean your teeth and make them look bright and white.

Teeth cleaning is known as oral prophylaxis or scaling. It is done in a single appointment by means of an ultrasonic scaler. An ultrasonic scaler is a machine designed only for scaling.
