Many smokers brush their teeth every day, so why do their teeth still become yellow and even black near the gum line? Brushing can indeed remove surface stains and bacteria from the teeth, but there are still some residues that can accumulate on the tooth surface and secrete sticky substances. When the smoke in the mouth combines with the sticky substances on the tooth surface, it can gradually cause the teeth to become yellow or black over time. The tobacco stains on smokers' teeth can accelerate the formation of dental plaque and damage the health of the periodontal tissues. Therefore, quitting smoking is an important measure to maintain white teeth and prevent periodontal disease. If quitting smoking is difficult but you still want to have a set of healthy and white teeth, you need to take good care of your teeth. You should pay more attention to daily oral hygiene, brush your teeth promptly after meals, learn to use dental floss to thoroughly remove food debris and plaque from between the teeth, and rinse your mouth immediately after smoking. Regularly visit a specialized dental hospital for dental scaling, preferably using sandblasting scaling to improve the smoothness of the teeth and slow down the formation of tobacco stains. You can also use tooth powder for brushing, brushing your teeth in the morning and before bed. In terms of diet, pay attention to eating vegetables with high fiber content such as celery and drink more green tea.
