Dear XXXXXXX,
Thank you for the query. QUIT the tobacco habit is the simplest and easiest tip to avoid the stains and to maintain the teeth in white in colour. Wherever there is smoke stains precipitate. You can try tooth whitening tooth paste [has limitation because of the habit].

Hope this answers your query.
