Absolutely !: First, you should see your dentist to have an exam and have your teeth cleaned professionally. This will remove any surface stains and give you a better picture of your actual tooth color. Then, there are a number of professional strength whitening products that can be used to actually remove any stains that were absorbed into your enamel. All the best....

See you Dentist: Yu will need to first have the surface of your teeth professionally cleaned, then a widening agent applied under professional supervision.
