Certain foods that are high in tannins, such as red wine, are potential causes of yellow teeth. Some of the most common causes of tooth discoloration include drinking beverages such as coffee, soda, and wine. These substances get into the enamel of your teeth and can cause long-term discoloration.

Dear lybrate-user, yellowish appearance of teeth is due to (1) deposits on teeth (2) thin enamel (3) calcified pulp chambers (4) pigmentation due to food substances/ medicines
every reason of causing yellowish teeth is dealt with separately. So my advice will be to go for teleconsultation on platform preferably video so that you may get appropriate remedial advice.
