What else can I do to improve my teeth after fillings and stains?

[Anonymous]

Finally got my incisors' stains covered with fillings by my dentist. Sadly my teeth aren't decaying, so she refused to drill out the stains as they're deeper. They're translucent so you can kind of still see them, but they won't further stain and in better lighting are invisible. Besides pulling out my wisdom teeth and getting braces, anything else to do for my teeth?

your teeth are not that bad. When I was a kid one of the neighborhood kids had rotten teeth. His mother told the old guy that ran the little neighborhood variety store not to sell this kid any candy. The kid used to give one of us the money and we would go in and buy the candy for him.
Now those were some disgusting teeth,

don't you mean Superb Opinion? I didn't choose that, the site and/or mods did

[exitseven]

yes, you are right

[jaksone2]

Maybe ask your dentist if gentle whitening strips are safe to use around your new fillings
Otherwise braces sound like a great next step

I also had stains on my teeth, and it made me happy to see someone else experiencing the same problem. Luckily, I also had my front teeth filled, so getting braces and then whitening them should be enough.

you didn't use AI to write this right?

I'm only using translation because my English is very weak, but no, I haven't used artificial intelligence.

You need an orthodontist and a few whitening sessions in office.

[Asker]

I don't need an orthodontist for Invisalign

[OneViewpoint]

I'm not sure Invisalign is gonna fix that. Ask a professional. Or maybe you already have.

[Asker]

Invisalign are braces and my dentist recommended I get them

[OneViewpoint]

Well Invisalign are a plastic device that does the same thing as braces, with limitations. Traditional braces have a wider range of movement and much stronger forces can be applied if needed. But a professional will know if Invisalign is right for you. I certainly am not the source you want to be taking advice from.

[Asker]

well I can't afford either of them anyways, not in this economy

[onmyradar]

go get them bleached or get over the counter bleaching toothpastes, that's the best you can do other than getting braces or invisilines.

[Asker]

OTC bleaching won't work on my stains

[Nicolette1103]

Get to the dentist they help do cleaning for you.

[AviatorTom]

Brush and floss regularly.

[Asker]

brushing can't remove deep stains

[AviatorTom]

Use a whitening toothpaste

[Asker]

that won't work either if stains go below the surface

Braces are all you really need

Have you considered asking your dentist?

Go to a dentist

[Asker]

how do you think I got fillings?

[Iron_Man]

Rinse your mouth, with hydrogen peroxide

[Asker]

how about no

[Iron_Man]

What’s the problem? I do it every day.

[Iron_Man]

And my dentist recommended swishing with it he says it’s better than Listerine

[LiamJHayden]

Veneers.

[Asker]

too expensive and dentist said my teeth are too healthy to risk damaging them like that
