Yes: The reasoning for yellow teeth can come from use of tobacco products as well as tea and coffee. However, part of the color of teeth is dependent on the relative opacity of the covering enamel. The more opaque or frosted if you will the enamel, the whiter they appear, more translucent more yellow due to showing underlying dentin which is yellow.Bleach your teeth or porcelain veneers can whiten.

Intrinsic Staining: All processed food (in cans, bags or bottles) have food coloring added, to make them more appetizing. The inside portion of the tooth is called the dentin. Think of it like a 'sponge' that soaks up discolorations from everyday foods and drinks. The problem is that 'inside' stains are not removed- from external tooth brushing alone. Contact your dentist regarding safe, tooth whitening procedures.
