And endogenous coloring refers to that the tooth color become abnormal because you take certain drugs in the physical development period. Tetracycline tooth and dental fluorosis are the most common.

Secondly, you should know the two kinds of teeth whitening treatment: repairing treatment and bleaching treatment. Repairing treatment needs to grind some parts of teeth and cover the artificial materials on the corresponding place. Its advantage is that the change of teeth color is obvious. However, the defect is that you have to face the damages to teeth and the dental pulp and even some complications. Bleaching treatment is a kind of natural therapy which can quickly whiten and brighten teeth without grinding teeth.

But the bleaching effects will be different due to your own teeth condition.

Sometimes even more serious symptoms may also occur like the defect of dental pulp. In this case, the expert recommends the cold light whitening method. The effect is obvious but it is not permanent. Using the porcelain teeth is the most thorough teeth whitening method. And the porcelain teeth are resistant to stains.

If a person lives in the area where the drinking water contains excessive fluoride in a long term, the fluorine teeth may appear in his mouth. The fluorine teeth disease usually shows the brown or black patch shape. Like the tetracycline teeth, the fluorine teeth are also caused by the endogenous teeth discoloration. Only using the porcelain teeth can whiten your teeth.
