Hi..
Thanks for the query..

If the teeth are not white naturally then it is generally due to thin enamel..

So in this case you can go for teeth whitening procedure or bleaching of teeth for improving the appearrence..

Other procedures can be veneers or laminates..

Please let me know if you have more queries.

Hope this helps..

Detailed Answer:
Hi..

Well natural teeth colour is not changed much..

You can do gargles with 1:1 solution of hydrogen peroxide and water.

Mix a pinch of baking sida with hydrogen peroxide to make a paste but be cautious to use very little baking soda.
Brush gently over the teeth with it just for a minute and not much.

Limit intake of tea and coffee.
Do not consume tobacco or cigarettes if you do.
Eat more of fresh fruits, salads, vegetables in raw form.
Always gargle after eating anything..

Hope this helps..
