This plan can include avoiding the troublesome food that leads to tooth discolouration. This may include things like coffee, acidic food and wine.

While avoiding these foods you should combine it with a general good standard of oral health routine. That would include brushing at least twice a day, notice we say at least, brush even more regularly whenever possible particularly after eating. Floss to remove plaque buildup in and around your teeth in hard to reach places. Another great tool to use is antiseptic mouthwash.
