O wine, recommended by some doctors for the benefits it provides to health when consumed in moderation, can also bring a very unpleasant consequence. This consequence is quite visible, since it is stains on teeth.
As explained by expert Martin Hagen to Yahoo! Life, “red wine stains teeth because it contains a mixture of tannins and acids which, in turn, attract proteins, sugars, enzymes, etc. into the mouth and make them stick to the teeth”.

Thus, when consuming red wines with a greater presence of tannins and more full-bodied, you are subject to the risk of having your teeth stained due to the aforementioned characteristics. So, one of the recommendations to avoid this risk is to consume less full-bodied wines, such as those made with pinot noir, gamay and similar grapes.
In addition to the choice, if you don't want to give up your favorite red wine, there are some more tips, which follow:
- Before drinking, brush your teeth well and use dental floss;
- If you can't brush your teeth, rinse your mouth with water frequently to prevent stains from sticking to your teeth;
- Chew gum while drinking wine, as this stimulates salivation and reduces the effects of the acid found in wine on your teeth.
Also, people who have recently had dental implants or who have had whitening should avoid drinking, as teeth in this situation are more susceptible to discoloration and stains derived from the consumption of red wine.
