Causes of Black Teeth

teeth, health, smile, dentist, dentalhealth, oralhealthThere are various reasons why children’s and adult’s teeth turn black and tooth decay is top of the list. Severe tooth decay often ends up with an extraction. However, the dentist will try to avoid this and treat the problem before it gets out of control.
Once any tooth discolouration is noticed, it should be discussed with your dentist to discover exactly why this has occurred. While decay is likely, there is often a fairly simple explanation such as:
– Tea and coffee
– Smoking and nicotine products
– Certain medications
It is best to “avoid black teeth with proper dental hygiene” including brushing twice daily with fluoride toothpaste. More tips to avoid black teeth can be found at https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/321777.php
