I use sensodine toothpaste twice a day. But my teeth are turning yellow. And leaving a very bad smell. I am going to be very prestigious and suffering from discomfort. Can any medicine or paste cure my problem? So that I can open my mind and smile in the middle of everyone. Help me please thank u.

No medicine can clear tartar or plaque deposit on teeth. Infections in the mouth, such as dental caries tooth decay, persistent bad breath or a bad taste in the mouth may be a warning sign of gum (periodontal) disease. Gum disease is caused by the build-up of plaque on teeth.), periodontal (gum) disease or mouth sores related to other conditions may contribute to bad breath. Dry mouth also can cause bad breath. Smoking or chewing tobacco-based products also can cause bad breath, you may need deep cleaning & fill tooth cavities with artificial enamel filling. Rinse your mouth thoroughly with a mouth wash until then. Advance procedures can be done with laser too. You may consult me in person dental tips: - visit a dentist every six months for cleaning and a thorough dental check-up. Limit sugary food to avoid tooth decay. Gargle your mouth thoroughly after every meal. Scrub gently to clean your tongue with a tongue cleaner. Floss all your teeth inter dentally & brush twice daily, morning & night, up & down short vertical strokes, with ultra-soft bristles, indicator brush. Tooth brush to be changed every 2 months.

Hello lybrate-user you need to send the pictures and past medical, dental,location history. Because that can give me the information of source of yellowness of your teeth. If I know the source of yellowness I can guide you better. For the bad smell must follow 1. Correct brushing technique 2.flossing daily 3. Use of mouthwash like chlorohexidine, hydrogen peroxide, or betadine or salt water rinses 4.use of interdental brushes 5. Gum paints like stolin. Metrohex plus gel by following oral hygiene practices you can reduce or even stop the gum inflammation completely and so your bad breadth.

Maintaining proper good oral hygiene is very important, visit your dentist for scaling and root planing procedure, it wil clean your teeth properly and allow toothpaste to work on teeth by removing calculus and plaque deposited on teeth which can not be removed by brushing, further maintaining the cleaned surfaces is required by brushing two times in a day regularly using soft bristle brush with regular toothpaste not sensitivity toothpaste like sensodyne, but use common toothpaste colgate total in daily use, brush in horizontal and vertical strokes taking 2-3 teeth at a time and keep bristles at 45 degrees towards gums while moving them on tooth surface, cover all the surfaces in and out of front and back teeth upper and lower teeth, followed by flossing and tongue cleaning you might require short term use of medicated mouthwash like chlorhexidine 0.2% for 14 days and after that replace it with common mouthwash like listerine for regular use all this two times in a day. Get regular routine check ups every 6 months to your dentist. Happy smiling.
