Kindly give your son more fluids. Avoid carbonated drinks. Advise rinsing of mouth after every meal, also supervise your son during brushing for awhile to make sure he is brushing properly. Children with lot of plaque retention and staining are prone to caries hence visit a dentist regularly for check up. Also take topical fluoride therapy twice a year for protection from dental caries

It seems he is having staining of teeth. Some individuals are more prone to staining of teeth than others. It is only a cosmetic issue and otherwise harmless. Get his cleaning and polishing done regularly. This will help.
