What does it mean if you keep brushing your teeth but they are still yellow?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Color of dentin: If there is no plaque on teeth and just appears yellow it could be the color of your tooth dentin..Tooth has enamel which is translucent outermost layer, than under that is dentinwhich has color varying from greyish to yello to white..This is the color that you see..Whitening your teeth can lighten the color..However see your dentist to rule out the exact cause..
