Ive always had yellow teeth ever since i was young, is this normal?

Stains: Not particularly normal, as teeth are meant to be naturally white. Over time, with diets and eating, teeth will get stained yellow. There are many over the counter whiteners or the dentist can treat this condition as well.

Could be for you!: The color of one's teeth depend on genetics, diet, oral health care, overall health during tooth development and a host of other factors. Your normal could be yellow, but modern dentistry offers a variety of options to whiten your teeth. See your dentist, ask the question and see what's most appropriate for you!

Don't feel bad: Overtime teeth are yellow, because of staining from food, drinks, and other substances introduced to the mouth. It is completely normal for teeth to be not perfect whites.Professional teeth whitening is safe, fast inexpensive and predictable if it is done correctly. Just call your dentist and you will be pleasantly surprised.
