Not likely: If your teeth are noticeably yellow, then a thorough dental cleaning and bleaching can lighten your teeth. However, once you have lightened your teeth, brushing and flossing will do wonders to keep your teeth bright and your gums healthy.

Too late: If you haven't been brushing your teeth, now's the time to start fresh. You will need to make an appointment with a local dentist the have your teeth professionally cleaned and evaluated. After your teeth are cleaned and restored, you can maintain your new smile by brushing your teeth twice a day.

Depends on: What is causing the yellow coloring. If its generalized heavy soft deposits, then a good cleaning by your dentist can reveal the tooth's natural shade. Many people have yellow teeth even with good hygiene. If your question is how to whiten yellow teeth - professional whitening by your dentist is the mist predictable and safest way. First step is to make a dental appointment. Hope this helps.
