A member asked:
If you wash your mouth and brush your teeth twice/ thrice a day and take proper care of your teeth how long will it take to get white again?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Wrong assumption: You assume that brushing alone will whiten your teeth... Not so! if the stains have been absorbed into the enamel, you will need whitening gels/products to get those stains out. Keep brushing and flossing, but see your dentist for advice as to what can be done to get those teeth white again.
