vaping discoloring my teeth?

[windxrunner]

I noticed yesterday that one of my front teeth is looking a bit discolored. Got a couple light brownish/grey streaks. It seems like it might line up with where I typically hold the tank in my lips. Has anyone else had this problem or heard of it happening to anyone? It's possible that it's unrelated but I figured I'd ask the internet and see what turns up... Thanks.

Most people will say no. I noticed this at first, but it cleared up with some whitening toothpaste, and hasn't come back even with regular toothpaste.

I've been thinking on it, and where I typically put the drip tip is like millimeters in front of that tooth. I don't open my teeth much, just kinda pop the drip tip in between my lips and vape away. If it's getting the brunt of the blast of vapor, it's possible. I mean, the liquid has color to it, as do most. Yeeahhh idk I'm gonna use a whitening strip. I already brush daily with whitening toothpaste.

Like Shellie said, most people will say no, others yes. It did mine. I can tell the color difference between a crown and the other teeth. Seemed to happen when I was on my coffee juice kick.

Don't even want to know what you are vaping.

What type of material is your tip made from? Acid in your mouth may be reacting with your tip and etching the color of it or your juice into your teeth OR it could be close to midnight here and I'm talking out my ...! We may never know lol.

I noticed my teeth becoming cleaner looking since giving up tobacco. I wouldn't doubt it if anything going into your mouth all day might stain your teeth though. Just hasn't been my experience so far.

Nope, my teeth are better looking now

What seemed to stain mine was a very dark coffee vape. Most people say their teeth have gotten whiter. Wish mine would. My teeth haven't gotten worse since I stopped using the coffee. Glad I didn't get the zebra teeth the OP is talking about. Yikes.

Maybe it's related to your e juice. Have you tried to change ejuice for a while?

 

[JohnnyBGoode]

Try sucking your favorite ejuices with a tissue over your driptip for a while. If it picks up color, it could be. All my liquids tend to be colorless or very light in color (diy) so never noticed much of it.

I've found that my teeth have improved since I started. My dentist even mentioned it last week which was nice to get the feedback. Perhaps your juices are on the dark side? Mine have mostly tended to be very light in colour, but if there's food colouring, that will stain if concentrated and in contact regularly with your teeth just as coffee will.

I never had discoloration from cigarettes and I smoked heavily for ten years. It's a black plastic drip tip btw. I will start using a different tank with a metal drip tip and see what happens. I did a whitening strip last night and it's looking a little better. As for the juice it's a light greenish brown tobacco/menthol juice with 18 mg nic.
