Now I am 50 I dont have white teeth they have discoloured

Q. I was always proud of my ‘white’ teeth as a younger man. I am now 50 years old and my teeth have discoloured. I don\’t smoke or drink, and take very few curries. Therefore I fear it’s my age that has contributed to the colour of my teeth. For the first time in my life, I am very concerned about my teeth. How can my problem be rectified?

A. Dear Mr C,

As you get older, unfortunately it is a fact that you’re teeth will naturally discolour. This can be rectified very simply with teeth whitening. Most dentists offer teeth whitening and it is does not harm your teeth in any way. The only side effects may be a little bit of sensitivity for up to 24 hours.

Kind regards
Dr Justin Glaister
