I have red hair and my teeth have always been slightly yellow. Bleaching helps a little but they never seem to whiten as much as they should. I pay attention to teeth and it seems like more readheads have this problem than blondes or brunettes. Is it just my imagination?
Are redheads more likely to have yellow(ish) teeth?
I have red hair and my teeth are white.
Reply:Nothing to do with your hair color-try Tom's of Maine toothpaste-whitening formula. In 6 weeks you will be shocked!
Reply:KATHY,
HAVE YOUR FRIENDS OR FAMILY TOLD YOU THIS? IT'S NORMAL TO HAVE THE TEETH WITH A SLIGHT YELLOWISH SHADE, ESPECIALLY WHERE THE CANINE TEETH ARE NEAR THE GUMS.THE ENAMEL IN THIS ZONE IS THINNEST AND THE UNDERLYING DENTIN HAPPENS TO BE YELLOWISH.
Reply:No!!! The color of your hair can bring "out" the yellow undertone color which everyone in the world has! Try on a wig of blonde or brunette and you'll see what I mean. Try having a professional cleaning(or a bleaching) done. The "OTC" teeth whiteners work better to maintain professionally bleached teeth than they do actually whitening them at home. Good luck. Also, if your a female, try wearing "red" lipstick. Try out a few different shades till you get one that works for you. It will help!
Reply:I'm a redhead too... and the color of teeth is a genetic thing as well as environmental. Teeth can be more or less porous, and retain stains. There's also the fact that our fair skin doesn't give as much contrast to the color of teeth as brunettes.
Blondes have the same problem as we redheads, I've thought.
Drinking colas, teas, and coffee as well as eating some kinds of staining foods will darken teeth too.
I asked my dentist about whitening my teeth, and he said it's only temporary.
Reply:The color of your hair has nothing to do with the color of your teeth or maybe it could make it a little more visible if you have long hair (due to the color contrast) but other than that no. You should know that our teeth are not made to be all very white, especially the canines; they have a natural light discoloration.
