Hello! I've just spent a whole bunch of money on my teeth ... so I was wondering ... does anyone know whether peppermint tea stains your teeth? Thank you in advance to anyone who is able to provide an answer to this question!

I don't think so - I believe it's the tannins in regular black tea, or new

I was having a ton of trouble staining some new cosmetic work I had had done--even had to have it redone just after I gave up coffee. I drink peppermint tea every day and after four months there are absolutely no stains. My dentist and I both are very happy.

No, I think it's just coffee, regular black tea, and red tea (not completely sure here). Peppermint tea is herbal so drink away and enjoy your new smile!
