It seems that there might be a reason for deep cleaning and root scaling, but to remove stains in order to see cavities doesn't seem like a reasonable reason.

I'm going to try another dentist.
I had trouble with my dentist complaining about tea staining as well until I started using Arm & Hammer "Truly Radiant" toothpaste and mouthwash. You may want to give it a try.
