Smokers stain removal can help to fight the discolouration of teeth that often accompanies smoking tobacco. Tobacco stains are not only unsightly, they are also more prone to plaque and calculus build ups. Stain removal can eradicate stains and look out for signs of gum disease in smokers.

How does smoking damage teeth and gums?

Smokers develop more tartar on their teeth than nonsmokers this is because chemicals in tobacco products affect saliva flow in the mouth making it a lot easier for bacteria to stick to the teeth and gums. Smoking also interferes with blood circulation which affects the normal function of gum tissue, causing infections and restricting blood flow.

It also delays any healing in your gums. Smoking also damages your teeth as it stains your teeth yellow whilst also causing bad breath.

If you are currently a smoker, quitting smoking would be the first step to prevent any further damage to your teeth and gums. Good oral hygiene that includes brushing twice a day with fluoride toothpaste and also flossing daily. Doing this will help prevent any further cavities and gum infections.

Why does smoking stain teeth?

The tar and nicotine in cigarettes are what stains your teeth and makes them turn yellow. Smoking, even for a short period of time, can make your teeth yellow.
