Quiz Answers

- True. Tomato sauce, ketchup, mustard, cola, cocoa, red wine … these foods will stain a white tablecloth and they will stain your teeth over time, too. Limit them if you wish.
- False. You can expect years of wear from your teeth whitening or other treatment if you take excellent care of your smile.
