Question:

Does coffee w/cream stain your teeth less than black coffee?


Answers:
Coffee tastes great and it's hard to stop drinking it, however, it stains your teeth and causes coffee smile. Coffee beans have a dark brown color that sinks into teeth. The brown stain causes teeth to darken but it's most noticed on the upper front teeth of coffee drinkers.
Sipping on coffee throughout the day bathes teeth in the coffee stain. Coffee coats the teeth and sinks in. The shorter the time spent drinking coffee, the less chance it has of causing coffee smile. It's best to drink coffee over a short period of time and then rinse with a glass of water.
Milk or cream will not stain your teeth less as it will not counterwork with the coffee in any way to avoid or lower staining.

My advise is that you dont have to private yoursefl from the coffee drinking pleasure.
Just wash your teeth as much often as you can, but make it a hard wash, i mean really brush them for at least 2 mins. not a quick wash. That will be useless.

i think so

Drink it thru a straw ... That way it passes by your pearly whites and try a Zoom2 whitening to get rid of the old stains ... I have seen some great results on our patients ... Ask your own dentist:)

Yes, but over time coffee with cream will stain your teeth, but not to the extent that plain black coffee (or tea for that matter) does. Save yourself some money at the dentist or brightening clinic and use tooth whitening strips found in the drug store. They are economical and work fairly quickly. Many professionals use the same formula found in the drug store but in higher, supervised concentrations.
