Teeth whitening can sometimes cause irritation, so many people avoid it. Some, in pursuit of a beautiful smile, choose to get veneers. However, this can be extremely costly and not everyone can afford it. Interestingly, the appearance of our teeth is influenced not only by hygiene but also by our diet.

Are genes the key to a beautiful smile?

Many people value a beautiful smile, as it helps create a positive first impression. It's often said that you only get one chance to make a first impression, and our appearance can play a significant role in this.

Proper care is crucial for snow-white teeth. It's important to maintain oral health from a young age to ensure teeth remain in good condition and have a lovely appearance. However, sometimes even this isn't enough. It seems that genetics may play a role.

Avoid these if you dream of white teeth

If we desire white teeth, it's worth considering what we eat and drink. Not everyone is aware that certain products can significantly affect their colour. Coffee, tea, and wine are prime examples. Even if we undergo professional whitening, these beverages can shorten the duration of the results.

Besides these, be wary of other staining products such as beetroot, chocolate, cherries, and even cinnamon.
