I know alot of people who's teeth are yellow and it's cause of smoking. I know smoking is a bad habit but I'm a smoker myself. But again, I do take care of my teeth and try to keep them looking nice and white as I can.

coffee and tea could stain your teeth, too. i'm using a special kind of toothpaste to remove the stains because even though i don't smoke, i drink coffee and tea quite a lot. there are many kinds of toothpaste that really remove stains.

Smoking I think is the main reason I am a smoker and I had a filling done that is kinda brown and when I ask the denist he asked meif I smoker he said and can whiten it back up but it will probley turn again.

i think that could contribute a LOT. but there's a few people that i know who had yellowish stained teeth. i think this has something to do with the quality of water they had, because they lived near the sea.

yes that could contribute a LOT. but i know a few people that makes their teeth turn into yellow and really looks like a stain because of the quality of water they had, i think this goes for those people that lived in nearby the sea.

Smoking and drinking turn urs white teath into yellow. People, who do n't brush their teeth have yellow and black tooth but thank God!!! I brush mine teeth daily and have white teeth. People say to me that my teeth r white and good. Many people do n't brush their teeth. Its really a bad habbit. When u smile with ur yellow teeth, urs such smile does n't have any importance.

For me it is due to smoking and tea. I smoke very much. At the same time I took tea much. These causes my teeth turn to yellow.
