Why has teeth a shade of yellow? Is it a nutrient deficiency?
Question:
Answers:
Improper tooth care. Not brushing your teeth often will results in food stains forming on the enamel of the teeth.
Smoking. Add another item to the "Negative Effects of Smoking List" here: it makes your breath smell bad and your teeth gradually become yellow.
Drinking too much tea or coffee. Daily consumption of such beverages is very likely to stain your teeth in the long run.
So, what's there to do if you have yellow teeth? The first thing is to make sure your condition doesn't deteriorate by brushing your teeth more often, preferably after meals or the consumption of coffe or tee, so that the food doesn't stay on the enamel long enough to form yellow stains. If you are a smoker, you've just found one more reason to quit. It's worth it.
Then, if you want to remove the yellowish stains on your teeth, you could make an appointment for tooth cleaning by a professional and repeat the process once a year. You might also want to try bleaching your teeth, after consulting your dentist.

Everyone's teeth are a different color - very few are really WHITE. They also could be stained from drinking tea and coffee for years. Teeth can become stained by things we eat and drink like coffee, tea, soda, red wine.. But enamel can be all different shades and some people have lighter teeth than others it is just the way it is. You can try whitening toothpaste that can help remove stain, or you can have your teeth whitened by a dentist.
