Dental Caries?!


Question: Dental Caries!?
I'm hoping someone in the dental industry can shed some light on this!.

I noticed upon close inspection that I have a couple of very light brown spots (not dots but two tiny short light brown lines) in the crevasse of one of my teeth!.

I just had a dental check up 6 weeks ago, and all was okay!. Could these be new cavities developing, or is it normal to have some discolored spots in the grooves of the teeth!?

I'm in my 30's if that makes a difference!.
Thanks

I'm frustrated because I always brush (well) after I eat, and I floss every day too!. I already have 9 fillings!. Aggh!Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Hello!.!.!.OK, to begin with I strongly suspect that the discoloration has been there all along!.!.!.Natural teeth are always subject to having a variety of off color spots and streaks!.!.!.it's usually something that develops when the tooth is being formed!.!.!.As for the "light brown lines" that is classic coloration that we see!.!.!.Discolored spots are another matter!.!.!.while they too can be normal color differences they can also be sub-surface decay!.!.!.Given that possibility exits, it would be a good idea to have it checked out by your Dentist!. Good luck and I wish you well!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
