15 Foods That Cause Yellow Teeth (#10 Is Really Surprising!)
1. Drink water
That’s right. This is a super easy and simple way to avoid staining your teeth. Drink plenty of water during your meal and afterwards to wash these colors off your teeth. Don’t brush immediately after eating, however. Your tooth enamel is softer after eating acidic foods and consuming acidic drinks for about 30 minutes afterwards, so brushing will only make things worse. If you want to be really certain that you have washed off these tooth staining foods, simply rinse your mouth with water after eating.
2. Eat an appetizer of spinach or broccoli
Spinach and broccoli form a protective film over your teeth so that foods and drinks cannot seep into your porous teeth. They also protect your tooth enamel, keeping those pearly whites hard and strong to fight damage from acidic foods. Lettuce such as romaine lettuce, not iceberg, will also do the same thing, so have a few pieces of plain romaine lettuce before digging into your salad, or eat some spinach or broccoli before your meal for plenty of protection from those ugly yellow teeth.

Keeping a mouth full of beautiful white teeth does not get much easier than this!
