      Avoid brushing teeth immediately after eating (especially if the food is acidic) it causes damage more to enamel. Rinse mouth with water first at least.

    Teeth are naturally sort of yellowish or off-white. So if you want white teeth, find a good toothpaste and start brushing every morning and every night and find a teeth whitening kit that works.

    my teeth are off-white since i don’t artificially whiten them and they just look "normal".

    hydrogen/carbamide peroxide are the only chemicals which whiten your teeth. You have two choices, high concentration and low time or low concentration and high time. In chair procedures are not essential, they are just faster. Also, blue lights do nothing, they are a marketing gimmick.

    Either way, you will end up at the same point. Your teeth are limited by their natural hue and chroma which mostly comes from the dentine beneath the enamel. You can whiten as much as you like and remove all the extrinsic pigments and stains on your teeth, but dentine is not changing. As you get older dentine becomes darker. So whitening will be less effective.

    If whitening doesnt achieve the results you want, veneers are the next step.

    If you are only brushing once a day, use a hydrogen containing toothpaste like Colgate optic white. The higher the concentration of hydrogen peroxide the better. Do not rinse after brushing, spit only. You can also apply some toothpaste to your teeth before going to sleep as if its tooth mousse. If you had braces and have a retainer, you can use it to hold some toothpaste on your teeth while you sleep. Cut foods and beverages which will stain your teeth out of your diet too.
