My teeth are straight and used to be very white. I am a non-smoker, but my teeth are dull and the enamel must be thinning. I am 59. Not really yellow, but somewhat gray.

Answer: Zoom Whitening Hello there,It is difficult to access the color through this photo, but you can definitely try Zoom whitening or in office whitening. The procedure takes about an hour and cosists what patients like to call the "blue light". The lamp helps oxidize the superficial stains that have accumulated over the years. Coffee, tea, soda, red wine and vegetables rich in color stain your teeth over time. You will definitely get an improvement in color of teeth after a whitening. Hope this helps and good luck.

Answer: Dull Teeth Just like skin has a natual tone, your teeth have a natural tone. Generally, most whitening systems are good to remove yellow in teeth and superfical staining but it is difficult to get the grey out. it could be the natural undertone in your teeth. As we age, teeth can get darker and more brittle. I am concerend that you feel that your teeth are dull and the enamel is thinning. The question is why is the enamel thinning? It's difficult to assess what exactly is going on just from your picture. When teeth come together sometimes they don't come together in harmony and that can cause wear of the enamel that has taken years to show. For this to be corrected you would have to have your bite analysed. I would reccommend a Pankey Dentist in your area. You should also be aware if you are clenching or grinding your teeth that could be exacerbating the condition. Hope this helps! Good Luck!
