Why Do Teeth Turn Yellow?

Happy April everyone! Hope you all are enjoying the beautiful weather we've ben having. 

Just this week, I have had more than a handful of patients ask me the question above. I found an online article on Live Science that does a wonderful job exploring this topic. One of the sentences that I want to highlight is this really great advice: "According to the Mayo Clinic, the best protection against thinning enamel is proper saliva production and fluoride. Brush twice a day with a fluoridated toothpaste, drink water treated in fluoride and see a doctor if you are experiencing dry mouth to help prevent thinning."

The article can be found here. 

Happy Kinda-Tax Day,
