However, coffee lovers also most often have yellow or brownish plaque on their teeth.

Foods high in chromogens, such as blueberries, can cause teeth staining.

Chromogens are pigmented compounds that give colas, and other dark carbonated drinks, their color.

They stick to the surface of the teeth and cause discoloration of the tooth enamel.

It is important to brush your teeth or rinse your mouth immediately after eating such foods.

This will help avoid stains.
