Brush frequently to remove plaque and have them professionally cleaned. Some foods like coffee,tea, dark soda, soy sauce, blueberries etc can be the culprits. Tobacco, stannous fluoride, and chlorhexadine may also cause the staining.
Stain could be removed, if inside enamel can't, unless do the filling
That usually means the tooth had decalcification (the start of a cavity) but the minerals in your saliva managed to remineralize it and reverse the decay process. It cannot be treated unfortunately.
