The holiday season is a time for celebration, but some beloved foods and drinks can dim your teeth’s natural brilliance. To smile bright through the festivities, it helps to know which treats can leave a mark and how to maintain a radiant grin with teeth whitening treatment at Dr. James C. Ross!

Stain-Prone Holiday Favorites

Some holiday staples are more likely to cause stains. Red wine, dark teas, and coffee are frequent offenders, while rich sauces like cranberry or soy add to the challenge. 

Desserts with deep colors, such as chocolate or berry pies, can also contribute to discoloration. These items contain pigments that cling to enamel, leaving stains behind. 

Easy Ways to Keep Teeth Bright

You don’t have to avoid your favorite foods—just enjoy them strategically. Sip water alongside dark drinks to wash away pigments before they settle. Pair indulgent treats with crunchy foods like carrots or celery, which can help scrub teeth naturally. 

Maintaining good oral hygiene is your best defense against stains, so brush and floss daily.
