What Causes Tooth Discolouration?Two images showing teeth whitening before and after results in Wahroonga, NWS

Teeth can become stained or discoloured for a variety of reasons, some within your control and others part of the natural ageing process. Common causes include:

  • Food and drinks — Coffee, tea, red wine and dark-coloured foods can stain the enamel over time.
  • Smoking and tobacco use — Nicotine and tar can cause yellow or brown staining.
  • Poor oral hygiene — Inadequate brushing or flossing allows plaque and stains to build up.
  • Ageing — As enamel wears down with age, the yellowish dentin underneath becomes more visible.
  • Medications — Certain antibiotics or medical treatments can cause teeth to darken.
  • Genetics — Some people naturally have darker enamel or are more prone to staining.

Frequently Asked Questions

Teeth whitening is a popular way to brighten your smile, but many people worry about whether the process will cause discomfort. While some patients experience temporary sensitivity, modern whitening treatments are designed to be as gentle as possible.

At Wahroonga Village Dentistry, we use professional whitening solutions that minimise sensitivity while delivering noticeable results.

Understanding Tooth Sensitivity during Whitening

There are certain circumstances that can cause your teeth to be sensitive after a professional whitening treatment. Our dental team will discuss this with you during the treatment planning process.

You may experience mild discomfort from teeth whitening if you:

  • Have naturally sensitive teeth, as thin enamel or exposed dentin can increase sensitivity
  • Use over-the-counter whitening products, which often contain harsh ingredients
  • Whiten too frequently, as overuse of whitening treatments can temporarily weaken enamel
  • Consume acidic or hot and cold foods afterwards, making sensitivity more noticeable

How Wahroonga Village Dentistry Helps Minimise Sensitivity

Our professional whitening treatments are designed to reduce sensitivity while providing long-lasting results. If you're concerned about discomfort, we can recommend desensitising gels or toothpaste to help.
