If you break the bank on anti-ageing lotions and potions, hair products and make-up, you should be aware that it’s your teeth which may actually reveal your true age. Here are some of the issues you never knew revealed your age (and how to prevent them):

Tooth enamel can erode over time and lead to sensitivity. That glass of orange juice, wine or gin and tonic may well be the culprit of your enamel erosion. Acidic food and drinks, including wine, tonic water, fruit juices and sports drinks can soften the enamel of your teeth.

Top tip: To avoid wearing down your tooth enamel, drink through a straw and wait an hour after consuming acidic food or drink before brushing your teeth. Use a toothpaste and oral rinse, which protects teeth and gums by eliminating bacteria and plaque and by creating a protective enamel shield.

Chipped or cracked teeth are a sure giveaway of a life well lived.

Top tip: To avoid flaws/cracks on the surface of your teeth, avoid chewing ice or any very hard foods. You should also steer clear of eating or drinking very hot and very cold foods at the same time. If your teeth are already showing signs of wear and tear, visit your dentist BMAG 20

and follow a good oral hygiene routine. Try toothpastes designed for sensitivity, such as Sensodyne or Duraphat by Colgate, which help to rebuild tooth surfaces and fill in the microscopic enamel cracks to leave teeth stronger, smoother and brighter.

Another more obvious assault on teeth is staining. Some of the worst perpetrators for stained teeth are coffee, tea, wine, berries, fruit juice, soy sauce and curry.

Top tip: After consuming beverages that stain teeth, it is advised to have a drink of water. Follow a good oral hygiene routine. Another trick to keep those pearly teeth sparkling white is to consume high-risk drinks like fruit juice through a straw. If all of this does not work, talk to your dentist about tooth whitening. Done by qualified oral health professionals, tooth whitening is a great way to get the smile you always wanted without harming your teeth.

As you get older, through inadequate brushing and flossing, hormonal changes and grinding, your gums may recede and become inflamed.

Top tip: The best way to prevent gum recession is to take good care of your mouth. Avoid vigorously scrubbing your teeth back and forth.

Brush in a gentle circular motion at a 45° angle twice a day, floss and rinse with an alcohol-free mouthwash.

Nothing is worse than those old and discolouring fillings on your front teeth that you hate, but not sure what to do with them.

Top tip: Fillings have a shelf life and most tooth-coloured fillings will keep their appearance for just a few years. Anything that can stain your teeth can stain the fillings as well. While you can whiten your teeth by for example tooth whitening, it will not possible to do the same for the fillings. The best way to improve your fillings is to have them replaced. The treatment is easy and can often be done in one visit. Treatments are individually tailored so talk to your dentist for the best option for you.

Nothing is worse than a gaping hole in your smile for adding years to your appearance.

Top tip: The best way to avoid a toothless smile, gum problems and tooth decay is to visit the dentist regularly and maintain a comprehensive oral hygiene routine.

A good daily dental regime and using the right products, will keep you looking youthful and smile with confidence for years to come BMAG 21
