Snus & Teeth Stains

[mwood72]

Sorry to ressurect this old chestnut but taking into account all the new snus out there today has anyone found which ones stain the teeth the least?

[sychodelix]

I haven't really had a major problem with any as long as you brush your teeth and use a good non-alcoholic mouthwash.

Anything made by Wise is stain free.

Those are:
Wise Tobacco (6 & 3 mg)
Wise Citrus/Menthol (6 & 3 mg)
Vin & Kocksnus (6mg flavourless too!)
Northerner Energy Snus (6mg + caffeine + taurine + xylitol to whiten your teeth!)

Cheers

Skruf is not bad.

Wouldn't most, if all whites not cause staining near as much. Less juicy means less stains??

Maintaining proper oral hygiene is the greatest factor in having white teeth. I know smokers and dippers that have white teeth that brush their teeth twice, daily. On the contrary, I know people that are tobacco free that have brown, yellow, disgusting teeth. It's all about brushing your teeth daily!

I'm brushing twice a day with Colgate Total Whitening with an electronic toothbrush. I even got Colgate Total Professional Weekly Clean. Have some Colgate Miswak on route to try

Even when brushing regularly, many people get stains on their teeth.

The way I see it, the perpetuated ideal of pearly white perfect teeth needs to be taken down a couple notches. I asked a dentist (who does cosmetic dentistry as well) about how actors all have perfect teeth. He explained to me that they basically grind their teeth down and either cap or veneer them all.

Yep, Simon Cowell springs to mind (a regular smoker I beleive) and it's a standing joke his pearly whites blind you!

Been Snusing since last october, and I haven't noticed any stains. Actually the only stains I have are from my smoking days Kreteks can a bit hard on the body. Thats why I quit.

Hi-
I spoke with my Dental Hygenist about this staining thing and also the gum thing. She said if I simply used ACT Restoring Mouthwash 2x a day I shouldn't have any dental related issues to using Snus. Coming from a dental family, I can tell you that I've researched this ALOT. Ofcourse brushing twice a day the way you normally would. I also love this stuff called "Go Smile" (from Sephora) which some people use if they're drinking a lot of red wine, coffee so it must work with snus, too. If your really mad for having the brightest nicest teeth even while using things that could stain.

Black coffee sure stains teeth too along with tea and spicy foods (I enjoy a lot of curry and drink a lot of coffee and tea) so my dentist told me.

I've been using Colgate whitening twice a day since my last dental descale and polish and have had no problems with my Skruf Stark hybrids (fingers crossed) Maybe the problem was last time I didn't start using whitening toothpaste until quite some time after my descale and polish. If this carries on working I'll be very

I did also use to rinse with Corsodyl twice a day and have also since learnt from my dentist that that stains your teeth brown which can only be removed with a descale and polish!
