6. Methods to prevent tooth discoloration

1. Drink water through a straw. John C. Moon, a dentist in Half Moon Bay, California, said that drinking coffee, soda, tea and other drinks through straws can minimize the contact between drinks and tooth surfaces, significantly reduce the chance of teeth being colored by drinks, and make teeth whiten for a longer time. 2. Eat tooth whitening food after drinking red wine or coffee. Apple, for example, is slightly sour and astringent, and its coarse pulp rich in fiber makes it an ideal food for cleaning teeth. Chewing apples, celery, carrots and other foods carefully can clean teeth like a toothbrush and wipe away stubborn stains on teeth.

3. Self-made whitening toothpaste. Jennifer Jablo, a plastic dentist in new york, said: "Particles can remove stains and polish teeth, but they are not corrosive enough to damage enamel." Self-made whitening toothpaste can be made of baking powder and water. It can be used several times a month to remove the coloring on the tooth surface and make the teeth white.

4. Choose the right lipstick. Jessica Libiskey, a makeup artist in new york, said: "Lipstick with a blue background will make teeth look white." In order to make it easier to distinguish, three or four lipsticks with different background colors can be identified side by side.

5. Reduce heartburn and acid reflux. Edmund Hugh Park Jung Su, a consultant of the American Dental Association and a professor at the College of Stomatology of the University of California, said that acidic water in the digestive system will flow back into the mouth, which will erode the enamel like the acid in soda water or sports drinks. Therefore, it is necessary to consult a professional doctor to control the reflux of gastric acid.
