Hi! Change in teeth color is more likely because of progressive plaque(sticky film) layer that accumulates on surface of the teeth.
Progressively, Plaque hardens and form a strong layer called as calculus over a period of time, which is yellowish to brownish in color.
Normal food we consume has artificial/natural colors incorporated which these sticky films attracts and deposit them leading to color change.
