Answer 1

Answer 2

hi,,,,,,,teeth discoloured due to tea, coffee or tobacco are due to extrinsic staining,i.e., the teeth are stained from the outside,,,,...............
since the stain is from the outside, it can be removed easily....apart from this, the common cause of discolouration of teeth is Calculus, which is formed over the teeth due to improper cleaning (brushing) habits. Calculus is harmful to the gingival health and to general health also.

u have to visit a dentist for a procedure called SCALING which will remove all the superficial calculus and stains from ur teeth,,,,,if the stains persist, u will have to go for polishing also....,....scaling and polishing would normally cost u around 300-500 bucks in a city or a posh dental hospital........Rural dentists woud charge u Rs.250 for the same.....the cost varies in different places though........

an advanced procedure called BLEACHING is also adviced if the stains are tough and are causing much trouble,,,,,,,this procedure uses chemicals to bleach the tooth surface and give a whiter shade,,,,,,this is not a routine procedure and is slighltly expensive but the results are good and longstanding,,,,,,,,it may cost u about 1500-3000 bucks for bleaching,,,,,,again the cost may vary depending on where u are and whoz performing the procedure,,,,,,,,,,,

if u need any home remedy,,,,,,,sorry,,there is not much help available at home,,,,,,,
try using a good toothbrush and paste and use them atleast twice daily,,,,,,,,,,nevertheless these are only preventive measures and not corrective,,,,,

good luck,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Go to a chemist/ general store buy a sachet of soda bicarb ( NaHCo3) its edible don't get afraid its also used in baking cakes. You must be having common salt also at home.
Rub your teeth with mixture of both don't spit or wash out for some time.
Your teeth will shine back in one or two applications

Answer 4

If that is your diagnosis that coffee and tea are spoiling your teeth, stop taking coffee and tea immediately.
Consult a dentist to improve the look of your teeth and to prevent further damage and de-colouration.

How to Prevent Stained, Yellow Teeth
Proper dental hygiene is one of the most important things you can do to prevent stained teeth. You should be brushing at least two or three times a day. Remember, the longer that a food or beverage remains in contacts with your teeth, the better chance you have of them turning yellow. Ideally, you would want to brush your teeth within an hour of eating or drinking anything that may stain them. You also need to remember to have dental cleanings at least once a year. Avoiding beverages that might stain your teeth is your best bet, but if you must have your soda, consider drinking it out of a straw and chasing it with a glass of water.

Getting Rid of Yellow Teeth
If you have yellow teeth, you’ve probably realized that there is a wide selection of products available for you to try. They include:

Whitening Mouthwash
This is perhaps the easiest method. All you need to do is swish it around your mouth for about a minute. However, these are usually only effective if your teeth are only very mildly stained because the whitening agents are only on your teeth for a short amount of time.
Whitening Toothpaste
There are many brands out there on the market. Again, for mildly stained teeth you might see an effect. These are best used as stain prevention, rather than stain removal.
Paint On Bleach
These over-the-counter bleaching products look almost like nail polish. You simply “paint” your teeth with the bleach and let it sit. These have been shown to work on teeth that are not very badly stained. They can be somewhat messy, and you need to be sure not to miss parts of your teeth or they will be bleached unevenly. Also, some tooth sensitivity and gum discomfort is a common side effect.
Whitening Strips
Working under the same principles as the paint-on bleach, these strips have the whitening agent included right on them. You simply place the strips on your teeth, usually once or twice a day. These can work quite well. They typically cost anywhere from $20 to $50 dollars and your color change should last about a year. Again, you might experience some tooth pain or sensitivity or some pain in your gums from the solution. You should also be careful not to use the strips too often, as overbleaching of your teeth can cause them to look blue. If you have uneven or crooked teeth, strips probably won’t work for you because it will be hard to make sure the strip is evenly covering your teeth. This could cause the color change to appear uneven.
Bleaching Trays
Bleaching trays are given to you by a dentist. They are typically molded to fit your mouth which allows the bleaching agent to more effectively coat each tooth. They also contain a higher concentration of the bleaching agent, so you get a brighter smile quicker. However, you might notice more side effects and you will be required to make at least one trip to the dentist. This is an effective option though, and can be a good option if your teeth are more than mildly stained.
Blue-Light Technology
You can find many of these teeth-whitening salons in malls and office parks around the country. One popular company is Brite-Smile. These procedures use a combination of a hydrogen peroxide bleaching agent and blue-light technology. It takes about an hour, but many claim the effects are dramatic. There are also supposed to be fewer side effects than other methods, and the color change should last a few years. It costs between $400 and $600 dollars in most locations.
Dental Veneers
Veneers are typically made from porcelain and are applied in thin layers on top of the tooth surface. This can be one of the most effective ways to get rid of your yellow teeth. First used to improve the look of movie star’s teeth, veneers have been around for many years. Now anyone can get veneers, but there are some disadvantages. First, a dentist must do them for you, and they typically cost around a thousand dollars per tooth. They also only last around ten to fifteen years, and after that you will need to replace them. This can be quite an expensive option. Most insurance plans will not cover veneers which are done strictly to improve the look of yellow teeth. There are few side effects with veneers, but care must be taken by the dentist to make sure that the veneers fit properly in the mouth and that the bite is adjusted so that they do not become easily chipped.
Home Remedies for Yellow Teeth
There are tons of home remedies that you can use to try to whiten your teeth, although none have yet proven to be successful. Here’s a few:
Rub the white part of an orange peel along your teeth.
Brush your teeth with baking soda.
Using a Q-Tip, dab hydrogen peroxide onto the surface of your teeth, being careful to avoid your gums or you might have irritation.
Strawberry pulp is supposed to have a natural bleaching effect, and it tastes better than baking soda.
Salt can be used to brush your teeth. You can also try mixing salt, baking soda and water together. But be careful, because the salt is very abrasive and could cause mouth pain and weakened enamel.
Rinse your mouth with a vinegar/water solution.
You should consult a dentist before trying and of the above remedies. Your tooth enamel is rather fragile, and you don’t want to do too much to your teeth because it can really wear down the enamel, causing you even more problems. Remember, yellow teeth are really just a cosmetic issue and you don’t want to cause permanent damage in your quest to have a bright smile.
