Why do stains keep coming back?
You brush. You sip a coffee. And it starts again.
-
01
Coffee & tea
Dark drinks, every day.
-
02
Food & smoking
Curry, red wine, tobacco.
-
03
Stains build up
A yellow film settles on the enamel.
-
04
Brush & repeat
Back again after the next cup.
Brush, stain, repeat.
It has a name:
chromogens.
Coffee, tea, wine and tobacco contain coloured compounds called chromogens. Tannins help them cling to the thin protein film on your enamel. Cup after cup, they build up into yellow stains.
What stains your teeth
- Chromogens: the colour in coffee, tea and wine.
- Tannins: help that colour stick to the enamel.
- Tar and nicotine from tobacco.
What a miswak brings
- Silica crystals, a gentle natural polisher.
- Calcium and sulfur crystals of varied sizes.
- Natural fibres that scrub the surface.
- BITC, released by freshly cut fibres.
