Although found in different shades, when teeth begin to form they all grow with an external white enamel. The foods and drinks we eat, such as tea, coffee, red wine and strong colouring in foods, gradually stain this white surface. Abrasive toothpastes and hard toothbrushes (along with age) also accelerate the erosion of the tooth surfacethe white enamelexposing the yellow dentin core which lies beneath. Teeth often therefore appear yellowed and dull in colour.
