Wine and staining you teethThursday, September 10, 2009
Do you love red wine but always order the chardonnay to protect your teeth from staining? It seems like a smart move because we know what red wine does to your carpet when it spills – it leaves a stain. However, recent findings from NYU dental researchers might have you changing your next drink order.
Researchers found that drinking white wine can increase the potential for teeth to take on dark stains. To perform the research, cow teeth were dipped in white wine for one hour and then exposed to black tea, a situation similar to sipping wine with dinner and having coffee or tea with dessert.
The acids in the wine created rough spots and grooves that enabled the other beverages to penetrate deeper into the tooth and cause staining.
Red wine still beats out white when it comes to staining since it is highly pigmented.
The best solution is to enjoy your beverage of choice and brush regularly with a whitening toothpaste. The best time to perform home bleaching on your teeth is immediately following your regularly scheduled dental hygiene appointment. Speak to your hygienist or dentist for more information about bleaching options or give us a call at 561-394-9000, we would be please to answer any of your questions.
