Best is prevention if u are living in area with this by limiting the fluoride content of drinking water to below 0.5 ppm (parts per million), by using deep bore drinking water supplies. An adequate daily intake of calcium is also protective.

Dental fluorosis can be cosmetically treated by a dentist. The cost and success can vary significantly depending on the treatment. Tooth bleaching, microabrasion, and conservative composite restorations or porcelain veneers are commonly used treatment modalities. Generally speaking, bleaching and microabrasion are used for superficial staining, whereas the conservative restorations are used for more unaesthetic situations. Also, as a preventative measure, dentists recommend that children should not receive topical fluoride treatment until the age of three or at the earliest time that a determination can be made about a child's total flouride exposure.
