I brush my teeth several times a day, using all the Crest 3D products, the rinse, toothpaste, and the toothbrush;and yet my teeth are still yellow. My teeth have always been yellow. I stray from food/drinks that discolor my teeth like soda, juice, coffee, and yet they never whiten. How can I whiten my teeth?

Sometimes the tooth color is yellow in color only. The cause for this can be genetic. In such cases, how much brushing you do or whatever product you use is not gonna whiten your teeth. For this you need bleaching which can be at home or dentist. In your case, the bleaching from dentist will be more effective. If you want to have quick results then you can get in office bleaching otherwise you can get the bleaching trays made from dentist and get the material and you can use it at home. It also gives good results within 5-14 days depending on how much whitening you want. For more info on bleaching of teeth you can read this article from given link... www.identalhub.com/article_understanding-tooth-whitening-or-bleaching-145.aspx

Why is it that my teeth are more yellow some days, compared to others?

May be it is due to biofilm which is formed within 2-3 hours of brushing and it also depends on type of food you eat on that day.
