Teeth turn yellow due to the natural aging process of the tooth enamel. When the outer layer protecting the tooth wears off, it leaves the dentin exposed little by little, with a more yellowish colouring.
Genetically, there are people who have whiter teeth, and others who have a slightly yellower tint. This is completely normal and is due to the mineral makeup of each person’s enamel.
However, if the teeth are not taken care of properly, they have a greater tendency to suffer from premature aging, and to yellow prematurely.
Do you want to prevent your teeth from turning yellow? The key is to take care of them from childhood and throughout life. It’s much simpler than you think!
