A member asked:
Can any doc explain why are my teeth so yellow if my oral hygeine is excellent?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Shade of teeth: Great oral hygiene can prevent stain and plaque buildup but there is a wide range of shades of natural internal tooth structure. This is similar to individual variation of light and dark skinned people. Some people look as pale as a ghost while others look like they lie in the sun and tan when they actually don't.
