What types of stains don’t respond to traditional teeth whitening procedures or products?
If you were exposed to prescription drugs as a child, these stains are harder to correct. Also intrinsic stains (stains that form on the inside of teeth), which are typically caused by trauma, exposure to minerals, excessive fluoridation, or aging are harder to treat. Before using any whitening products or having any whitening procedures performed, consult with a cosmetic dentist for recommendations that are specific to your dental health and the condition and color of your teeth.
