Yellow teeth incisors
My teeth (bottom incisors) are yellow and I am not able to clean it..
I know about cleaning but I heard that that ut make teeth sensitive
In my opinion you are not able to clean them because there probaly has been calculus(tartar) formation on them.If you are into tobacco consumption of any form,that could worsen things too.
Next Steps
You must visit a dentist and get cleaning and polishing done.
Health Tips
If these yellow stains keep coming up,i would recommend you get scaling done every four months.Maintain them well and there would be less damage and hence no sensitivity.

It is a myth...teeth cleaning does not cause any damage...some people may develop transient discomfort after the procedure but usually it settles down on it's own. Any sensitivity can be further taken care of by desensitizing pastes and rinses.
Health Tips
if you keep ignoring the tartar and yellowish discoloration that happens with it , it can cause damage to your gums and teeth both.
