Answer:Well first of all Coke will not stain your teeth.
It can and will cause decay, the things that cause staining are things like curries, tea, coffee smoking etc.
Also genetics some people just naturally have yellow teeth.
You have two options:-
1. Veneers, this is were you have your natural tooth drilled down impressions taken and a week later have thin porcelain covers fitted over your teeth. This is a costly procedure which also involves lots of time in the dental chair, and a real commitment to your oral hygiene forever! I would not recommend this as you are drilling away at healthy teeth. Also they can stain so depending on your diet these in time my become yellow. Also they can fracture and need replacing.
2. Whitening, this involves having impressions taken and putting a whitening gel in trays every night for about 2 weeks. This also has its down sides.
Also very expensive, can cause VERY sensitive teeth as it thins the enamel, and the worst thing of all about this is that depending on your diet this can last only 6mths, if you are not eating things that stain your teeth then it can last 18mths +
