You’re likely familiar with many of the main foods that dominate Hispanic cooking. However, you may not realize that many of the key ingredients in these dishes are highly pigmented and often leave teeth with blotches and stains. The new Colgate Optic White is an effective way to protect teeth against the harmful effects of the items below.

The following foods can have a negative dental impact:

  • Tomatoes: Originating from South America and serving as the base for a variety of Latin foods, the acidic nature of tomatoes can weaken enamel, making teeth more susceptible to staining.
  • Berries: Present in batidos, these highly pigmented fruits can stick to enamel and stain teeth.
  • Coffee: As Latin America produces around 40 percent of the world’s coffee, it comes as no surprise that one of teeth’s most notorious strainers is often served up alongside Hispanic cooking, whether it’s a Venezuelan Marron or a Cuban Cortadito.

So, after polishing off that bowl of salsa and laying the sofrita on extra thick, make sure to incorporate Colgate Optic White toothpaste into your daily routine, to get shades visibly whiter teeth in six weeks. And get your #SonrisaColgate photo ready.
