It is normal for natural teeth to get stained over time. They can absorb pigments from common foods and drinks, including berries, coffee, red sauce, and so much more. But what about replacement teeth? If you have dental implants<\/a>, you may wonder whether they have the same potential for discoloration as natural dentition. This blog post provides information and tips to help you keep your smile bright, confident, and beautiful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Dental Implants Resist Stains<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

One of the great things about dental implant restorations (the crowns, bridges, and dentures that get attached to implants) is that they are usually made of non-porous materials. For example, they may be made of porcelain or ceramic. Pigments tend to slide right off these materials, making them highly resistant to stains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keep in mind, though, that if your restorations get scratched, pigments may collect in those tiny imperfections and cause your smile to lose some of its luster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In some cases, composite resin is used for restorations. It does have tiny pores, so it may absorb stains over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
