Does this sound like you?!


Question:

Does this sound like you?

My front teeth have been yellow most of my life. I used to have brown curved lines on them until I had veneers put on them. I have been told that there was too much flouride in the water in our little copper mining town of Ajo, Arizona. People have been teasing me about it my whole life but I didn't do anything to cause it.


Answers:

No this doesn't sound like me, nor does it sound like too much fluoride. This extreme of fluorosis would result in brown pitting not lines. This sounds more like tetracycline staining. Either your mom was given tetracyline while she was near the end of her pregnancy w/ you , but most likely you were given it while you were small. Who cares what people think, at least you have teeth.
