Photograph is not visible.
If it is stains and calculus then it can be completely removed by ultrasonic scaling.
Ultrasonic scaling is advised every 6 months for every individual.
If it is medicine, disease, tooth abnormality or fluoride stains then it will need dental veneers and laminates.
Next Steps
Visit dentist for clinical examination.
