Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

I have a few suggestions for you.

  1. You must brush your teeth after eating food.
  2. Cleaning every surface of each tooth helps get good, clean, shiny teeth and improve oral hygiene.
  3. To prevent staining, avoid acidic foods like sodas and spicy foods.
  4. You must eat a lot of vegetables and fruits for healthy teeth and gums.

I hope I have clarified your query.

Thank you.

Thank you.
