Is it actually possible? I've been paying more attention to my teeth recently and i've noticed that they've stayed yellow no matter how much I floss or brush.

Have I done irreparable damage? Or is this just one of those things that just takes time to achieve?

as an anglo I suggest you embrace the yellow stonehenge in yer gob and you disregard what others think about you. its how we ruled the world. then we became faggots who started caring what the rest of the world and our colonies thought about us and look at us now.

so yeah

rock on, snaggletooth

also, your teeth are supposed to look slightly yellow, pure white teeth are an unnatural phenomenon

If they're really bad, there's probably something in your diet you need to cut out. If they're just slightly yellow, it's probably not as bad as you think.

yes, you can order teeth whitening trays+gel online that actually work, ~$150-180. ideally, you would get the trays fitted and ready to go and then start whitening right after a dental cleaning

brushing will not whiten your teeth, it will only help prevent them from yellowing further. whitening gel works though, I assure you. otherwise, all the ASMR and streamer sluts, female e-celebs of all kinds wouldn't have perfect sparkly white teeth. I've used it and there's a visibly noticable difference after one evening with the trays in

Teeth eventually yellow as the enamel on it progressively thins with age and brushing revealing more of the yellow dentin underneath. You can use teeth whitening kits to bleach the underlying layer and make them whiter. Just make sure to use remineralization gel to help fight the sensitivity that will invariably occur afterwards.

If they're just slightly yellow, that's actually the normal color of human bone. Getting your teeth to be bleach white will take some effort, but unless you're looking to be a commercial spokesman for Colgate, you're probably fine.

My baby teeth were pure white

My adult teeth were pure white when they first came in

Are you implying teeth whitening kits damage teeth?

If my goal is strong, healthy teeth and I don't care about aesthetics, should I skip the whitening and remineralize my teeth?

yellow is normal for healthy teeth you dumb fuck. there is no such thing as naturally super white teeth. healthy teeth can be "white" but an off white, or even yellow can be noticed even in healthy teeth. It's unlikely you've done irreparable damage just yet, if anything teeth whitening products will do more harm to your teeth than good. Have you tried using a whitening toothpaste (the non-abrasive kind) once a week? Try the non-abrasive kind because the majority will fuck up your enamel and then you'll really be fucked. Also, the niggers do it in africa, so give it a go, take ash and rub your teeth in it. Your teeth will be as white as ever but you'll also realise that you are completely normal not to have super-white teeth.

Yes. Just brush, floss, and cut down on sugars and your teeth will be fine.

What about remineralizing? Will that make my teeth even better?

the remineralizing is just to help your teeth recover after using whitening gel. whitening gel makes your teeth very sensitive- meaning, if you sip cool water, you may feel a bit of pain in the nerve at the bottom of the tooth, which you normally wouldn't get.

the remineralizing is basically fluoride treatment. toxic stuff that lowers IQ when swallowed (and causes dental fluorosis when drank as a water additive), but occasional treatment is good for your teeth, like what they do at the dentist.

is that why my dentist recommended me to wash mouth with fluor liquid because of acidic damage(soda, citric fruits)?

Should do it at least every once in a while cause if food is in between your teeth and rots there that's bad.

Actually, I just floss my front teeth because the food that stockpiles there smells like vomit. That's why one should floss.

You cant get white teeth without some sort of artificial treatment or product. Ive habitually brushed after every drink of anything but water let alone meals and they still stayed a bit yellow.

It actually has reduced my gums to an alarming degree. My advice would be to brush with a soft brush after every meal and get a teeth cleaning once or twice a year from the dentist. They will knock off all the plaque with a sonic tool and polish it up with a toothbrush with polishing compound .

You can see the string yellow a bit even if you have just finished brushing your teeth if you haven't flossed in a long time.

The 2016 research that claimed that flossing research wasn't good enough has caused more research, and therefore evidence, for flossing. See this, if you must absolutely have a research paper:

My teeth have gotten a little yellow over the years since middle school when games mattered more than school and thus hygiene, and in piss poor lighting I think they're British level, but with daily brushing (frequent, maybe not every day) you can get away with having a cavity for more than 3 years.

Use coconut or olive oil, put some 25ml in your mouth and swish it around for one hour. It might taste disgusting but it will melt after some minutes, don’t spit into your sink it will clog your drain.

Do it every second day and you should see results after the second time.

That shit wears away enamel. Have you never tried it? I did. Never swish anything a long time. Use vitamin K and get enough calcium instead

Use bone powder, not whatever the dentist or local store is going to try and peddle. This will also help heal cavities.

i used to smoke hella cigarettes, pack a day for almost 2 decades. nasty white trash high tar ones too, pall mall reds at my worst. On top of this, I drank hella coke and only brushed once a day in the morning. never flossed. realizing how ugly I'd become and how nasty my teeth were was what drove me to become fit. I stopped smoking (vaping but down to 3mg nicotine) 2 years ago, stopped drinking all soda like half a year ago, brush 2x a day and floss most days, also swishing coconut oil once every week (oil pulling). i had so much plaque but no insurance, so I just took a sewing needle and went to town. i still have a bunch of plaque behind my bottom row but you can't see it. anyways, my teeth look pretty decent now. still yellow, but above average for a guy in his 30's. i do need to go to a dentist to have that hard to get plaque removed though. it's gonna be embarrassing when I do because it's been building up since forever. i'm 36 last time i went to dentist was when I got my wisdom teeth pulled at 19
