It
is actually a bleaching process
that lightens discoloration of
enamel and denting.
Tooth discolourations are of 2
types, internal and external.
External discolouration are caused
by the consumption of staining
substances like tea, coffee, colas,
pan, pan masala, supari, tobacco,
smoking etc. these discolourations
are easy to remove and teeth becomes
lighter quickly.
Internal discolorations occur due
to disturbance in the structure
of the tooth. Common causes are
ageing, trauma, excessive use of
antibiotic (tetracycline) and fluoride
during the early stages of tooth
development, nerve degeneration
and old restorations. These discolourations
are more resistant to treatment
and take a little longer to become
lighter.
