Intrinsic tooth stain is discoloration that occurs within the tooth structure, often as a result of factors during tooth development (e.g. exposure to certain medications or excessive fluoride). Intrinsic stains are more challenging to remove compared to extrinsic stains that occur on the tooth surface. Treatment may involve professional whitening procedures or veneers.

What chemical caues you to get stain teeth?

Teeth stain can be caused by a lot of things. Usually the biggest causes are tobacco, tea, coffee, red wine, colas, and some stain can be caused by iron deposits in water. Usually these are removable with a basic dental cleaning. If the stain is intrinsic (meaning cannot be removed), then there was probably a factor in your childhood that caused the stain while the teeth were forming. Such factors are high fevers and Tetracycline (antibiotic). Environmental factors "may" cause tooth stain such as if you work around certain chemicals. You may want to bring this up to your dentist to find the cause if you believe it is chemical related and you do not use any of the products noted above.
