Britons who wish to keep their teeth free from stains should consider avoiding certain foods, an expert has claimed.
Karen Coates, an adviser at the British Dental Health Foundation, said that people should avoid sugary foods, hard sweets and drinks such as cola.
'Eating or drinking any highly coloured foods or drinks, such as curries, red wine, tea or coffee, can stain the teeth too,' she advised.
Ms Coates also urged people to avoid smoking, as this can lead to stained teeth as well as being bad for overall health.
The advice came after experts at Wake Forest Baptist Health and the American Dental Hygienists Association warned that while bleaching is effective at whitening teeth, it can cause short-term side-effects, including sensitivity.
Commenting on the use of tooth whitening systems, Ms Coates said that people should only ever get this done by dental professionals.
Those who choose to use a home kit should ensure it bears the British Dental Health Foundation's approved logo, as this confirms that the product does not contain harmful acids and abrasives.

White County Abrasives gets national attention
White County Abrasives and Industrial Supply Inc., of Carmi has won national attention.
The business was featured in a main story of a recent issue of FF Journal, a trade publication that features information on metal fabricating and forming technologies.
The business is owned by Jim and Penny Lindley, with Penny having the majority of the stock in the business, making it a minority-owned business.
Jim is a native of northeastern Mississippi and Penny is a native of southern Wisconsin. The two met on a tour at Disney World. Later, while riding their touring motorcycle through Carmi on a long ride, they stopped here for a break.
"We got to looking around and really just thought it was a nice area," Jim said. "It was about halfway between my family and her family and just seemed like a good place to settle."
That was in 1988. The two now share a 12-year-old daughter and a grown son and have exceeded $1 million in sales with their 20-year-old business.
For the last 15 years, the business has been an authorized Scotchman industrial equipment dealer -- it is now one of the top-10 Scotchman dealers in the U.S. Jim said he has probably sold 300 of the units over the years and, more recently, has sold about seven such pieces to Elastec/American Marine, also based in Carmi.
The business sells welding and industrial equipment in Southern Illinois, southern Indiana and western Kentucky. It provides hand tools, grinders, heavy drills and many other items to area farmers, coal mines and auto body shops, to mention just a few of the types of business supplied.
The business has one employee, Grayville native Ray Sanders, who now lives in Carmi.

2Sand.com partners with NauTech IT Solutions to foster Effective Online Presence
RJ Stroman, owner and founder of 2Sand.com, started woodworking in 1986 as a hobby while working in manufacturing as a chemical engineer. While always maintaining an interest in woodworking, his concern for the environment led to a passion for woodturning, when he began recycling tree service logs into wooden bowls in 2002. His hunt for woodturning abrasives at a reasonable cost (specifically 2" hook and loop discs for bowl turning) sparked the idea for an online coated abrasives business - one that carried everything in regards to sanding supplies. So in 2007, 2Sand.com was formed to fulfill and cater for needs of woodworking enthusiasts - since then it has grown into a premier provider of sanding supplier for businesses - now 2Sand wants to continue to expand its strong client base using the Internet as a medium.
