Teeth Colour
Hi, My problem is regarding my teeth
colour.
I do brush them everyday. I have used
many home remedies such as baking
soda
and all that. When I move finger on them
they feel clean. Despite that they look
yellowish in colour. Why is that. How much will it cost to treat it ..? And How long will it take to get treated...? Thanks!

Post some photos. There are a number of causes for discolouration. Treatment planning is done after the cause is ascertained. Some treatment options are Tooth Cleaning by a dentist, Teeth bleaching, Laminates/Veneers.

Firstly get scaling and polishing done. That takes care of any superficial staining. Then if you still feel you want a lighter shade then you can opt for bleaching. Talk to your dentist about Home bleaching or in office bleach
