Stains from smoking can be removed only with a professional cleaning. Visit your dentist for a Scaling. Regular brushing would not help you much with stubborn stains and hard deposits (calculus).
Next Steps
Place an appointment for a Dental cleaning (Scaling) with your Dentist.

Dark spots will mostly be stains which have occurred due to smoking.no paste can remove that. And plz don't try to apply pressure while brushing to remove the stains as that will remove the enamel instead.and later cause sensitivity problem.
Next Steps
visit a dentist to remove the stains by cleaning of teeth known as scaling and polishing
Health Tips
quit smoking as that is the cause for stains and even after scaling if u smoke the stains will come back.
