Hi. I am a 24 years-old man. I think my teeth are a little yellow. when I told the problem to some of my friends, they answered that it is because of my teeth nature ( my teeth are naturaly yellow) and couldn't be cured. Is that right? Then, how really can I whiten my teeth? It is very important to me.

HELLO,
THE TEETH ARE COMPOSED OF MAINLY TWO SUBSTANCES. THE OUTER ENAMEL IS WHITE, AND THE INNER DENTIN IS YELLOW IN COLOR.
WHERE THE ENAMEL IS THINNER AS IN THE UPPER/LOWER CANINES, THE YELLOWISH PART CAN READILY BE SEEN NEAR THE GUMS.
WHEN THE WHOLE TOOTH HAS A YELLOWISH TINT, THE ENTIRE SURFACE IS OFTEN COVERED BY STAINS.
WHITENING BY SEVERAL COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS, LIKE CREST WHITE STRIPS HAS GIVEN GOOD RESULTS.
THE BEST THING TO DO IS VISIT A DENTIST TO SEE WHAT OPTIONS YOU HAVE.
