Teeth whitening is a popular cosmetic treatment designed to remove stains and discoloration, helping you achieve a brighter, more radiant smile. If your teeth could use some lightening, teeth whitening in Leesburg, Virginia, can enhance your smile’s natural beauty and boost your confidence.

What Causes Tooth Discoloration?

Teeth can become discolored for a variety of reasons, both internal and external. Common causes include:

  • Diet: Dark-colored foods and drinks, such as coffee, tea, wine and berries, can stain the enamel over time.
  • Tobacco Use: Smoking or chewing tobacco leads to stubborn stains that are difficult to remove with regular brushing.
  • Aging: As we age, the enamel wears down, revealing the yellowish dentin layer beneath.
  • Medications: Certain medications, like antibiotics taken during childhood, can cause internal tooth discoloration.
  • Poor Oral Hygiene: Inadequate brushing and flossing allow plaque and tartar to accumulate, leading to surface stains.
