Hi..it could be because of fluorosis. You need cosmetic Treatment like laminates or Zirconia crowns. Whitening won't help for fluorosis. Regards

You most probably have fluorosis, a condition resulting from excessive fluoride content in your local drinking water supply. Since fluorosis affects teeth during their formation , the condition is irreversible. Treatment options vary from masking the defect using composites, which will cost you 3000/- per tooth, and dental laminates which produce the best cosmetic results cost about 8000/- per tooth. Keep in mind that one requires treatment mostly on the front 6 teeth in both jaws!
