Teeth Whitening

I have my teeth checked and people said it's a natural colour of your teeth (yellow). Can it be white or any other suggestion.

Hello sir....     Colour of your teeth depends on thickness of enamel ...Normally human permanent teeth is slightly yellowish in colour...yellowish  discolouration is due to many causes ** Stains and deposits **Fluorosis **Enamel hypoplasia Treatment should be depends on cause only   If it is due to stains and deposits then scaling can be done   If it is due to mild flurosis then teeth bleaching(whitening) can be done   In case of severe flurosis and enamel hypoplasia then you can go for laminates and veneers and crowns
Next Steps
kindly visit dentist for further clinical examination and management

If the white part of your eye i.e. sclera is more white than your teeth, then your can go for tooth bleaching, it will look natural. If it is not, it wont look natural. Regards, Dr. Sandhya Lochav

Colour of your teeth depends upon the thickness of your enamal layer(top layer) of your teeth.Thiner the top layer shows the yellow colour of next layer. And the stains  on the teeth also changes the colour.
