Is it possible to remove stains from white fillings

Q. Is it possible to remove stains from white fillings? I am thinking of saving to have the two white fillings I have replaced with porcelain inlays but in the meantime is there anything I can do to make them look better? They are a frightening shade of yellow only six months after I have had them done. Thank you very much for your time.

A. If you drink a lot of tea, coffee, smoke or drink fizzy drinks the white fillings will stain more quickly. I would go to the dentist that placed them and ask if they can be polished up but there may not be anything that can be done.
Kind Regards

In regards to a stained filling my dentist that did the work is dead. we know that smoke, coffee and tea stain teeth, tell us something new, not a generic answer.
