What Causes Teeth to Look Stained or Worn
Teeth change over time for several reasons — and it’s not always just surface staining.
Common causes include:
-
Natural enamel thinning that exposes darker dentin
-
Staining from coffee, tea, wine, or tobacco
-
Grinding or clenching that wears down edges
-
Acid erosion from diet or reflux
-
Previous dental work that no longer matches
