Teeth get yellow because when you eat food you don't always get the food out right?So bacteria starts to grow. This turns it yellow. To keep your teeth from turning yellow you should brush them. That's a fact. When you don't brush your teeth the bacteria starts to grow thicker and thicker and it turns it brown. That's how we get cavities.
Yellow teeth is a symptom of inadequate dental hygiene. Poor dental hygiene can result in tooth decay, gum disease, and nearly always gingivitis.

It's the actual tooth decaying. So there isn't anything on the tooth. If you are talking about plaque, (but it's not really yellow) plaque is the left over stuff when we don't brush our teeth, it starts eating away a them.

Although there may be other causes of yellowing teeth, a primary cause is smoking, and if you don't brush your teeth regularly or well, a build-up of plaque can form on the enamel turning it yellow.

Cigarette smoking makes teeth yellow. Red wine, tea and coffee are beverages that make teeth yellow. Poor dental hygiene also discolors the teeth.

You get yellow teeth by not taking care of them - brushing regularly, going to the dentist for cleaning twice a year, etc.

You can also get yellow teeth from smoking.
