Use some Whitening toothpaste, such as Arm and Hammer... most leading brands, and supermarkets have a type of whitening toothpaste, a little more expensive than regular, but well worth it for smokers, coffee drinkers and people fond of red wine! after a few weeks you realy will notice a difference. Also, you can buy Chewing Gum woth microgranules (i think Wrigleys Orbit) that helps to clean and whiten teeth, so you can chew that between meals.

Hi
Do you drink alot ot tea, black current or red wine? as these will all stain your teeth! Often it is difficult to remove the staining by brushing and so 'dental' bleaching kits can help. You dentist can advise you more although they can be purchased in chemists in the UK. The only problem with shop bought kits is that's the gum shields/stents do not fit well where as if you have ones made by a dentist they will fit tightly and securely allowing you to even be able to wear them at night. Bleaching is not always 100% successful but maybe worth a try!
As for bad breath....well if you are cleaning your teeth twice a day you shouldn't have much of a problem from a dental point of view....however if you are getting a horrible taste one side of your mouth or a specific area of your mouth then you may have a leaking filling or crown. this would then need treatment from a dentist and shouldn't be left.
Another cause of bad breath can be acid reflux. stomach reflux into your mouth.
Be careful what you eat...try to avoid too many acidic foods. I think you can buy antacids medications from the chemist...its worth asking about at your local pharmacy!
Chewing sugar free gum could also help
Listerine is a great mouthwash!
Hope this helps.
This is not a medical diagnosis....just my thoughts.

bad breath can be caused by other things than oral hygiene. Have a word with your dentist, you might need some antibiotic treatment or have a fungal infection so I would ask someone that can see if theres a physical problem.
As for the colour of your teeth, after you have ruled out stains then it could be the natural colour of the teeth. Whitening toothpaste will help a bit or I have found a sonic tooth brush improved the colour.

If you have brushed your teeth thorough as instructed by a Dentist but you still have yellow teeth then you may have two sources extrinsic or Intrinsic.
Extrinsic ; caused by food we eat this is also called calculus(tarta)
Intrinsic;caused by minerals that help make up teeth as they grow eg Fluorosis (too much fluoride)
You will need a professional cleaning by your dentist. It is called scaling to remove culculus in case of extrinsic.
You will need crowns placed on your teeth if you mind the colour incase of intrisic . It may cost more than buying a new flat screen though
See your dentist and he should sort it out for you

Go to a health food store and buy some Parsley tablets. Sometimes bad breath is caused by stomach acids and Parsley helps. Keep brushing your teeth, flossing and drink lots of water.

Tough situation, but don't worry. I think you should go to a dentist, get you teeth cleaned, and ask him/her for any ideas. I bet you they would name plenty! You are doing a great job on cleaning you teeth, but you just need a little boost. If you want, you could even put a couple of mints in your pocket, or even carry those little bottles of mouth wash. No problem with that. You could even brush your teeth between meals, but I doubt anyone does that.LOL! Anyway, I hope this helps, and if you need to talk, e-mail me at Ice122@myway.com Bye!

a million. Does she smoke? if so, that's the reason. 2. Does she have a abdomen subject or undesirable the tooth? undesirable you reported it somewhat is from the nostril. are you specific? by using fact i've got in no way heard of absolutely everyone's nostril to stink. 3. Ask a doctor, and as quickly as you detect what may be probable worng, in basic terms tell her you spotted there's a scent coming from her breath that should point such and such and that she could attempt such and such. that's greater polite that telling her that she stinks, that sounds like an accusation, on an identical time as what i'm telling you shows you take care of her well being.

You need to floss, there is a lot of Bactria between our teeth. Keep drinking a lot of water put also try sipping green tea. It kills Bactria that casue bad breath. As far a your teeth go get a toothpaste like Crest Night Effects that will make you teeth whiter. I use it and I love it!! If this does not help you need to go see your dentist because you could have gum disease.

yellow teeth is due to not not brushing properly/smoking/coffee (plague build up) and is the major cause of gum disease, so make sure you brush for two minutes, twice a day!
Also, u need to floss once daily to remove plague between teeth, use a tongue scraper and listerine mouthwash daily.
Carrying chewing gum or breath freshener strips/spray also will really help.
water will not really solve this problem! If you think u have gum disease (need to visit your dentist if your gums bleed easily/bad breath/swollen gums/lots of plague/gaps between teeth) use CORSODYL mouthwash, it's a good medication.
