How do celebrities get their teeth so white?
This depends on the celebrity and the quality of their natural smile. Some celebrities use professional teeth whitening to get a star-worthy smile, while others whose natural teeth need extra work may opt for porcelain veneers.
Porcelain veneers are thin shells bonded to existing teeth to transform their appearance. They fix smile flaws such as gaps, discoloration, misalignments, and fractures.
-
Why are my teeth so yellow even though I brush them?
Many factors affect your tooth color, including the food you eat, the liquids you drink, age, and your lifestyle, including dental hygiene and smoking.
Some factors are under our control, while others like aging are not. Teeth naturally change color as we age because of enamel wear. This can cause teeth to appear gray or yellow in color.
If you brush your teeth daily and use an FDA approved toothpaste but are still concerned about the color of your teeth, then please schedule a dentist appointment in Durham to discuss your concerns and whitening options.
