The black/yellow bands are calculus bands (deposits) which are formed over a period of time. You have to get them removed by going to a dentist and getting cleaning done. If ignored, it will destroy your gums and bone and the affected teeth with eventually become loose and fall out.
Next Steps
See a Periodontist immediately and get the issue sorted.
